Bridget

[tummytickler]

I know I have posted on Enid already today, but dh has said that this is now top of his list.
I think I rather like it.
What are opinions on Bridget?

No, don't honestly, it is awful.

Love it!

It is not awful - it's beautiful, timeless and classic
Can you tell I've got one

Well zozzle you can have it - name swap?

i think it's really lovely

Bridget is lovely! (but please knock Enid on the head - I'm all for granny names, but really.....)

Name swap anyone?
You can have Bridget in exchange for yours.

Bunty, why don't you change your name if you hate it that much?

I used to dislike the name due to the sound of it, but have met a wonderful Bridget in the last few years and now it has a lot more charm for me.

maktaitai I did as an adult - I never use it at work or socially, but it is still on paper, and my parents call me Bridget of course, as they chose it, or to be honest couldn't think of a name (wanted a boy) until actually at the font, when my father said 'let's call her after my mum.'

My mother agreed but she thought her MILs name was Ellen, which was what she was called.

I find Bridget very harsh and can't get midgets out of my head. But Brigitta is nice. With a hard G.

It just makes me think of an old lady in sensible stockings.

My sister is a Bridget, now known mostly as Bridge. I am not aware that she was ever teased for it.

Brigid fabulous and unique but not too out of the ordinary.

Love it. Bridget Jones will be ancient history in a few years. It was on my list but hubby vetoed it for no clear reason.

I really like it. I think of Bridget Jones, but I like the character so IMO it's not a problem.
