What do you think about Georgia?

[carrottopper]

We've picked Georgia. At first I felt it was a strong but feminine name but now I'm worried its too masculine.

What does the name suggest to you?

Depends where you live, said in a strong Sarf East London accent I'm not so keen. Prepares to be slated...

I do like the name though.

I like it: strong and feminine imo

Valiumredhead we're not down south.

I'm glad you think it's pretty. I thought it was at first but started to think it wasn't. When we tell people, they don't seem too keen

I think it's strong, traditional and elegant. Pregnant with DS2 so will never get to use it

Beautiful, classic, feminine yet strong name
Disclaimer- I am totally biased as I have a gorgeous Georgia of my own ;)

The secret is not to tell anyone until baby has arrived

It's fine. I'd put it in the same category as Charlotte or Rebecca.

I really dislike it. I find it clumpy and inelegant. It also reminds me of little sausages though I couldn't for the life of me tell you why I make that connection.

I love Georgia. It was on our list for DC1.

I like it. Pretty, feminine but not too fluffy-puppy.

I think it's a lovely name, but not like Charlotte or Rebecca - more like Olivia or Lauren. Both of which I think are strong and feminine.

I like it ok, but I would say it's very much a working-class name now, which I think is what valiumredhead was trying to say. Of course this may not be a factor you want to consider.

Working- class seriously?!

Both Georgia and Georgina were on my list until little Prince George was born and those names were predicted to surge in popularity. I'm still swaying towards Georgina though!

It's a nice name when said with a naice accent, but with most regional accents, sounds a bit common.

IMO, Georgina sounds classy no matter who says it.

However, it's your DD, if you like the name Georgia, go for it! And stop telling people about your name choices. They will have opinions. Whatever name you pick, you're sure that some Aunt or Cousin or collegue will have known someone with that name at some point who was a right bitch - you will not be able to find one that comes with no 'baggage'. Announce when the decision is made. Not before.

I have a Georgia. I think it's a lovely name and don't regret that choice. The registrar remarked on it, and said she'd tell her pregnant daughter to think about it! It is strong, but traditional and pretty. Still not too common... Yet!

Think you're right little there isn't many around my Hv said she's not had a Georgia in many years

Very popular

I like it as long as it's not spelt Jorja

It's a nice nane, OP.

Love it. Was a contender for DD.
