What's your mothers name?

[BeigeBuffet]

Seeking inspiration here....

My name has come up several times as well, it's just one of those things really :)

Christine, which I don't think has come up.
mn Mary, which has. As has my name, several times.

Geraldine Hilda Anne. No surprise, she has always been called Anne, which is also my middle name. I think Anne is really simple and pretty (as long as it has its e!) and deserves a revival!

Audrey

Dorothy

Anne

Ruth. These are all absolutely lovely names BTW

Sylvia

Marion

Ann marie

Sue... Susan... Susie

Barbara - unlikely to inspire in my opinion. The name that is, my mum however is incredible and brilliant in about a million different ways.

michaela

Charmaine

Ingeborg. Goes by Inge. Can't say I blame her...

Sylvia, which I actually rather like

Mary.

Has friends called Joan, Barbara, Shelagh, Jo, Linda, Christine, Tess.

I rather like Tess as a name.

Just read the thread and will contribute various grandmothers:

Kate
Joyce
Florence

My mum is called Bernadette (very Irish catholic) which she hates and I love.

MIL is called Ida ... Very much of it's time.

My Grandmothers were Bridget and Patricia.

Jennifer

DM Rosemary
DMIL Zofia (pronounced Zoff-yah)

My name is pants

I could have phrased that differently

Just to clarify, my actual name is not 'pants', it's just a naffola name

Celia

Dawn and beige my mum's name is Marilyn too. Now one of my daughter's middle names

Helga - the only one on this thread so far. Allo Allo has completely ruined the name for me so was never going to use it for DD!
