Charlotte overused or Classic?

[bytheMoonlight]

Its a pretty name that dh and I both like but is it too popular and overused.

When your hear it do you go [meh]?

Or is it a timeless classic?

Classic, and lovely.

I love it!

Would have definately been one of my top three but DH's sister's name and so a def no no.

I think it's lovely. And I don't know any charlottes

It is a lovely name, but there are loads of them around here!! But if you love it you should go for it!

It is a beautiful name.

Nice name. Quite popular round here (Surrey), with Lottie or Charlie popular nicknames.

Classic, and lovely!

Classic, beautiful name. Popular but tnot too popular iyswim

Classic. Good name!

We are thinking of it if bump turns out to be a DD. Haven't dared to check top ten or anything, maybe I should...

I think it's great.

It's a lovely classic name and it isn't too popular. Even when i was a child there was only one or two Charlotte's in my class.

Charlie and Lottie are cute nicknames too.

Classic. I love it and adore Lottie as a nickname, but would you like Charlie as a nickname if she chooses that as a teen? I really dislike Charlie, so we didn't go for Charlotte in the end. But if you don't mind Charlie - then go for it. Don't know any little Charlottes or Lotties at the mo.

I hope it is a classic.

I called DD Charlotte in 1986 and there were No Other Charlottes at all then.

My Charlotte loves her name, but she has 5 friends with same name now, plus her flatmate.

I called DD1 Charlotte in 1986 too. DH got it from the tv show Dallas I think.

She calls her self Charlie now.

Oh I hope my lovely little Charlotte won't be a Charlie when she's 15!

its a perfect girls name.

I'll use Lottie but if she wants Charlie when she is a teen I won't be too bothered.

Looks like its a classic name

Overused, but that's because it is a timeless classic :)

Love it and don't think it is over used. DD2 is called Charlotte and I wouldn't mind Charlie as she gets older too. DD1 (6) calls her Chacha at the moment which I think is quite cute while she's little but hope it doesn't stick long term!

A little common around here with teens and pre teens, lovely still, can see why its so popular, same with Lauren.

I know twins with these names who go by Loz and Chaz! Their very middle class parents are over the moon

It was stupidly popular a few years ago. Lots of Charlottes in primary school atm. My friend has her class list for this year and there are 2 in her class. One less than last year!

It's probably okay now but for a while it had ceased to be a name and instead evolved into an obligatory label for a newborn girl. Like Ella/Ellie/Eva/Evie/Isobel now. And Jack. Enough Jacks. Honestly. There are other names.

I'm a Charlotte, so biased, but I love me name. I did go through a stage in my teens of calling myself Charlie but that passed quickly!

My name, not me name!! Pregnancy is definitely effecting my typing skills...

I like Charlotte. We've been thinking of it for DC2 if we have a girl.
