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?

Much much prefer Georgina.

I've got to day before this thread I've never heard a bad one and I started a 'Georgia' thread last year all very positive. It might be a southern thing because in the midlands and north its a non issue not overly popular and is seen as a nice name not common in any sense :)

Gorgeous. Biased because I have one but I've had very positive comments on her name :)

Not keen - it just reminds me of the US state. It was also v. popular a few years ago round here (South). Prefer Georgina, which I think is classy.

I know of a 6 year old who is known as Georgie. (I'm not sure if it's short for Georgina or Georgia.) I really like Georgie.

Carrottopper, the same class does have a Florence, and an India, i believe.

I like it but it is very popular. I know and know of quite a few. Still love Georgie for a baby girl though, seriously considered it.

I like it, as someone else said strong but still feminine. When she gets to a certain age, she and/or her friends will choose what she gets called, so be sure you like Georgie, George and Gee etc

My 2 year old is Georgie. NN George.
But everybody assumes it is short for Georgia.
