I know one, nice name i think

LucyDeSpiderman · 10/09/2011 21:39

My Norwegian Norweegan cousin from Norway recently called her daughter Tilda - I think it's lovely. I do prefer Mathilda though, and Tilda as a nn.

Baffledandbewildered · 10/09/2011 21:45

Lovely name I really like it

BlowHole · 10/09/2011 21:46

Nice, but also rice.

planetpotty · 10/09/2011 21:47

Rice .... Sorry Smile

Chynah · 10/09/2011 21:53

As a nn for Mathilda it is better than Tilly.

MogTheForgetfulCat · 10/09/2011 22:16

Rice here, too

tallulah · 10/09/2011 22:19

Rice

PootlePosyPerkin · 10/09/2011 22:26

Yep, basmati rice. And an actress with an interesting sense of style Grin.

Dialsmavis · 10/09/2011 22:32

I have a Matilda and we call her Tilda, as not that keen on Tilly. She also has an Uncle Ben though so the rice theme is fairly well ingrained in our family Grin

middle name Rizazz, as in the microwaveable sachets Tilda make of nice flavoured rice :)

It is a bit less girly than Tilly as a nickname which is possibly a good thing.
