Janet? Yes or No

[tesoro]

What do you think ladies?

I like it.

Not keen

Mm, don't like it sorry.

It's OK but Jeanette or Jane are nicer I think.

NOOO
Janet was born in the 1950s and has friends called Pamela, Susan, Christine, and Linda. She is not due a comeback.

No. I went to school with a Janet who would be in her 30's and she was lovely, and it's not awful, but no. IMO it goes with Mary, and that is very popular with MN.

I love it - dh and I were talking about this last week, and decided it was rather lovely. It lends itself well to the nn Nettie/Ettie too. Janet is lovely! Jane is nice too, not wild about Jeanette though.

YES! Look past the 1950s thing, and it is a beautiful name. I also love Susan and Pamela (sorry jandy :o ) and Keith, Stephen and Bobby which are IMO male equivalents. These names will be way cooler than the old lady names which are now- They will be ten a penny in 10 years and these will take their place, mark my words.

Had a lovely aunts Janet. I woud chose it.

You have to avoid foo foo names. No Janet or Mary for girls, no Percy or Willy for boys.

Janet is a foo foo name?! It's not for me though I'm afraid; dated and ugly.

I like it (but then I'm biased) as its my name!

Definitely not dated and ugly

Eek, sorry DrZeus, I think what I meant was it suits a woman, but I can't picture anyone under 30 being called Janet, and certainly not a baby! I'll stop digging now...

No!

Dammit Janet (Rocky Horror Picture Show.....)

Hey, Janet
Yes, Brad?
I've got something to say
Uh huh?
I really love the...skillful way
You beat the other girls
To the bride's bouquet

Oh...oh, Brad
The river was deep but I swam it
The future is ours, so let's plan it
So please don't tell me to can it
I've one thing to say, and that's
Dammit Janet, I love you
The road was long but I ran it

There's a fire in my heart and you fan it
If there's one fool for you then I am it
I've one thing to say, and that's
Dammit Janet, I love you
Here's a ring to prove that I'm no joker
There's three ways that love can grow
That's good, bad, or mediocre
Oh J-A-N-E-T, I love you so

Oh, it's nicer than Betty Munroe had
Now we're engaged and I'm so glad
That you met Mom and you know Dad
I've one thing to say, and that's
Brad, I'm mad, for you too
Oh, Brad

Oh, dammit
I'm mad
Oh, Janet
For you
I love you too
There's one thing left to do, ah-hoo
And that's go see the man who began it
When we met in his science exam-it
Made me give you the eye and then panic
Now I've one thing to say, and that's
Dammit Janet, I love you
Dammit, Janet

No.

No.

Ha! IndigoBell I was just finding the link and you beat me too it

No No No

I have an Aunt Janet. She uses doillies and those armchair covers. And has Royal Albert china and pot pourri in little glass dishes. And she pronounces it 'POT POURY'.

No. My mother is Janet. It's OK but nothing more. I think DD could use it (She's only 2) as by then it will acquire granny chic status.

Dammit! Janet!

Can't see anything particularly wrong with it, although I prefer Jane. which is lovely imo.

You have to avoid foo foo names. No Janet or Mary for girls, no Percy or Willy for boys.

Especially if your surname is Shelley

didn't Janet sing...
t-t-t-t-t-t-touch me, I wanna be dirty.............

I know a Janet who is 21 and it doesn't suit her -you have to be 40+ to be called Janet

You def want to watch the rocky horror picture show before you call your DD janet :)
