What do you think of Ethel as a girl's name? It's listed on Mumsnet's Baby Name Finder.

Ethel should have sisters Gertrude and Doris and brothers called Alfred, Leonard and Walter. It's not my cup of tea.

And I would repeat my above statement re: Hilda.

It's not that much different from Edith or Elsie or Hilda.

Look I like it. And I have wonderful taste. Ignore them others.

No I'm not joking. Is it that bad?

Bloody awful. Some old lady names should not be resurrected.
