Share your favorite posh name, and nickname : )

Octavia.

favourite posh nickname is probably Plum.

what about yours?

Posh name Inigo
Posh nickname Minty
If only I was posh!

Ottilie. I think it's very posh in France.

I love 'posh' names and my favourites include Hugo, Quentin, Sebastian, Arabella, Ophelia and Penelope. I'm not sure I'd call them posh though, I'd prefer to call them elegant and classic .

Plum ? What is posh about a plum....?!

My second daughters middle name is Ottilie- my husband wouldn't let me use it for a first name . I also love Araminta, nick named minty, and my daughter goes to school with a Lavinia, nicknamed 'Vinnie', which I think is fab.

Araminta (Minty) and Sheherazade.

I like Matilda (Tilly or Milly for short). But would you say this is "posh"? I'm not sure...

I think Matilda is quite posh but don't think Milly is.

Rupert.

DH banned it though

I like Hugo. No nn for that one.

What about Clementine (nickname?)

Hugo is great, but I'm afraid it would get shortened to Hugh, which I don't like.

We have Hugo nn Hugs or Hugsy

poppydaisy What you call an Ophelia for short?

My BFF at school always said shed call her child Crispin, we lost touch I wonder if she did I like Oliver and Penelope although the nicknames Olly and Penny aren't so posh.

scarlettsmummy2 Do you pronounce Ottilie Oh-tilly or Uh-tilly? If this were a first name, would it become "Tilly" for short?

I also like Araminta, nickname minty and LOVE Rupert. Unfortunately we are not posh and my husband has vetoed them as possible names for dc2.

Here in the US some surnames used as first names for girls are quite posh. Not Kennedy or Madison, those are common. But really out there ones like Haddon, etc. Bizarre!

Octavia is very downmarket here.

We pronounce it oh-Tilly. I would have preferred not to shorten it to Tilly as I think it is a bit more unusual.

Ptomeley (sp?)

I love it but DH vetoed it.

Jago. Although that can be posh and/or regional, depending on where you live. Round here it would be posh, though.

Love Camilla and Clementine.

Posh friends give one another nicknames like Pinky ponkington, tinky tonkington and dinky donkington.

Or Buffy, Stonky etc...

In fact I may name change to BinkyBonkington

I love ophilia nn felix

I have an Orla and my imaginary future ds is Arlo
