I vote for Martha - my middle daughter (7) is Martha Alice, and we've only ever met one other Martha (who lives in our street) but there are quite a few other Alices at school.

I love Martha. Very very pretty and timeless.

I've got a Martha and an Alice so I would have to vote for one of those names (and also everyone has commented on how much they like those names when we've introduced them to people)

inveteratenamechanger · 26/07/2010 21:59
  1. Martha
  2. Alice
  3. Rosie - like others, I'd go for a longer version and use Rosie as an abbreviation.

They are all lovely though.

Martha.

suwoo · 26/07/2010 22:04

All three, lovely. My favourite is

Martha.

zenoushka · 27/07/2010 10:29

I love Martha - very pretty.

LouMacca · 27/07/2010 10:48

They are all lovely names but I would pick Alice.

mamaloco · 27/07/2010 10:50

Alice

duplotogo · 27/07/2010 11:01

All nice but vote Martha

smother · 28/07/2010 09:29

So the results (so far!) are:

Rosie has trailed a long way behind in last place, unless as a nn for a longer name.

Martha and Alice are pretty much a dead heat for first place I think. But Alice seems more 'popular' as several voters seem to have one.

How interesting!!

Thank you all for voting!

Alice and Rose. Not Rosie. Love Rose in particular.

smother · 28/07/2010 12:27

Thanks emmyloo2 - so now I think Alice is just about winning!

Martha - my niece's name.

rnbsmum · 30/07/2010 23:06

I have a Rosie, shortened from Rosalyn, occassionaly known as Rose. Nothing like a bit of variety!!

rnbsmum · 30/07/2010 23:08

sorry, should read "occasionaly"

flopsy1974 · 31/07/2010 23:08

I have just named my new daughter Martha Alice. Both great names.

DorotheaPlenticlew · 31/07/2010 23:10

Alice, then Martha.

Rosie -- don't like.

bluebell4 · 01/08/2010 18:29

Alice, definitely. Would choose this myself if Dh wasn't Alistair

teameric · 01/08/2010 18:33
