A name I haven't heard in ages, but that of a gorgeous little girl I just met with her Mum.

Any thoughts on the name? I can't work out if I really like the name or it sounds lovely because the little girl is, if that makes sense!?

Love it

BelligerentGhoul · 22/02/2011 10:33

Pretty

cocoachannel · 22/02/2011 10:40

Just realised I have of course heard it...Winkleman, Schiffer.

Not on a child though, but then I don't know many children- yet!

I love this name but it means 'lame' so if that doesn't put you off (it did me) then go for it...Smile

One of DD's best friends is Claudia. Really pretty name Smile She does seem to get called Claude rather a lot though lol

cocoachannel · 22/02/2011 10:51

Yes- I've just found out that same info! Mmm. It does put me off a little, will see what DH thinks.

I thought we had pretty much decided it's between two (Alexandra & Elizabeth) given she's due tomorrow, but I'm suddenly having doubts.

See you on the other thread Highlandgirl!

I think it's a pretty name.

Reminds me of Enid Blyton.. Must have been a Claudia at Malory Towers or St Claires..

MelinaM · 22/02/2011 13:34

It's a lovely name, I do know of quite a few little Claudia's so it may well be on the ascent!

RatherBeOnThePiste · 22/02/2011 13:35

REally love it

LouMacca · 22/02/2011 13:39

I think Claudia is a lovely name if you have the goods to back it up i.e. you are posh! Smile

sleepychunky · 22/02/2011 13:56

I love it and would have used it if either of our DSs had turned out to be DDs!

flower38 · 22/02/2011 16:50

Don't like it at all sorry.

perpetuallypregnant · 22/02/2011 21:31

I have 3 dds and wanted to call all of them Claudia

My dh has absolutely no taste and refused.

Love it even though I first fell for it watching interview with a vampire Hmm

Underachieving · 22/02/2011 21:49

Wll you be pronouncing it claw-dia or cloud-ia?

I like it either way, I'm just nosey.

lagrandissima · 22/02/2011 21:49

Like it.

muminthesun · 23/02/2011 07:54

I love Claudia.Timeless,not too overused,feminine without being too sickly/twee

specialsmasher · 23/02/2011 08:17

Love it.

OliveMalay · 23/02/2011 10:59

Not keen, sorry.

kreecherlivesupstairs · 23/02/2011 11:10

I like it pronounced Cloud-ia, not too keen on Claud-ia.

ItsMeYourCathy · 23/02/2011 14:27

I LOVED this name and it was what I was called Bub until we found out we're expecting a boy. Claudia Rose. Beautiful.

cocoachannel · 23/02/2011 14:39

Was thinking 'Claw'dia. DH came home last night and vetoed it though..!
