What were your grandparents called?

[Oopsie]

I'm looking for some good oldie names.

Other weird facts on husband's maternal line is all the women were given the middle name of Vernon.

Oh, and we liked Carmen (husband's grandma's name) so called our first daughter Carmen.

Lindy, my GM was blodwyn too! Poor woman

Doris and William
Ivy and Archibald - was lucky enough to know them all :)

George and Winifred
Harry (Henry) and Primrose

Winifred is still alive.

Annie and Vincent, Elsie and Ernest. DH lobbied quite hard for Ernest for a boy's name when I was pg as he had a GF Ernest too and thought it was Fate. Fortunately Fate gave us girls.

Mine were
William ( Bill ) and Grace.
Trevor and Blodwen
Not sure about DH but think one was Gwladys ( Welsh for Gladys ) and Herbert.

Burt, Betty and Bob

Marjorie, Dick (Richard!), Emily, Frank

Ooh, Marion's a lovely name - seems to have fallen into disuse, more or less.

Emonda and Thomas
Douglas and Mary

Joyce
Wilfred (ace name)

Peggy (could be cute I think?)
Frank

Margeret (Peggy) & John Daniel
Rosaline & John Noel

DH's are/were:

Walter, Louie (a woman), Phyllis and Edgar.

I love Louie for a girl, except she was a mean old cow not very nice to me, so I didn't want to name my DD for her.

I think DP had a Charles and Alma on one side, but don't know about the other side.

Jack
Emily
Jack
May

Stella
Don
Albert
Nora

My daughters have granny names - Josephine and Eleanor

My grannies were Hilda and Ellen, though I never knew the latter, my dad's mum as she died when my dad was young.

Wasn't quite brave enough to go with Hilda :) - perhaps it will have a revival in 5/10 years though, who knows? Eleanor can have the same abbrevation as Ellen - i.e. Nell/Nellie, but mainly I was thinking of Roosevelt, of Aquitaine and Farjeon. Josie is named after an aunt and a school friend.

Reggie and Annie
Essie and Leonard

Oh grandads as well - John and Ernest.

Frank and Eileen
John and Sylvia

Have just used Sylvie as DD's middle name and DS has a Welsh form of John as his first name

William, Millicent, Claudia and Robert.
