Another name consideration....again. Yawn. DH likes Hattie, I quite like it too, but would prefer Harriet and then Hattie as a NN. I have a Poppy so like names that some may consider twee. The only other Hattie I have ever come across is the wife of an ex boss so I don't think its that popular. Oh and Hattie Jacques of course. Please give me your opinions. Grin

I love Hattie. And Hattie Jacques! so yes from me. I might put Harriet on BC though.

I like it...IMO better that Harriet. Hettie is good too.

I think that Hattie is OK as a nickname, but really not good as a given name. Go for Harriet or Henrietta (Hettie). I know a couple of both, and as adults they are only called Hattie/Hettie by their families now.

Love love LOVE Hattie!

Harriet is nice, and like Hattie as nickname. Don't like Hettie though.

Lovely!

I love Hattie, is on my list of names too Grin

KurriKurri · 28/02/2011 16:44

Hattie is lovely IMO (I have a friend called Hattie - although she's often just called Hat or Hats)
I also love Hettie (Can be short for Hester too, which I like but I'm keen on 'old fashioned' names)

Really love it - it's high on our girls list, but I feel slightly nervous about using it as one of my best friends has a DS called Harry.

As a Harriet who is nn Hattie, I say go for it!

dexifehatz · 06/03/2011 01:16

Our Hattie Hope is 12 and loves her given name!Lots of people ask if her actual name is Harriet tho'!!Bizzare this thread as Since the BBC4 drama about Hattie Jaques,we have seen 1 or 2 birth announcements in our local paper...there was never another Hattie in her class,school or district{verified by local registrar}.

Love Harriet and Hattie. I would have Harriet on the BC but use Hattie.

If I ever have a DD she will be a Harriet/Hattie, even though DP isn't keen.
