Wanted: girls name. Must be fabulous.

[MaureenMacnally]

Why am I pregnant again ffs? Stupid Catholic upbringing. My body will an unsalvageable wreck and we will be living in penury for the next two decades.

Anyway. Need a girls name. I am utterly devoid of inspiration, being interested only in grab bags of Skips and having naps.

Already have an Agnes and an Enid. Surname Stephens.

Dislike: frilliness; 'ah' endings; 'classic' names.

Like: fabulous names. I was keen on Ramona the last go-round, but think I might have lost my love for it.

Any suggestions?

Vida - I like it.

Vena - No. Don't know why.

Vanessa- No. HR manager.

Venetia - No. Too horsey.

Rosalind. Celia. Shakespeare - always good for inspiration !

How about Harriet, nn Hats

Well I'm an unoffended Irish Catholic, so not offensive to everyone.

Fanny - I almost want to like it . I do really like Frances though.

Velma
Verna
Vada
Verena
Valeska
Virginia
Vivien

((Tries again))

Doris

Bertha

Vera

Effie

Joan

Doreen

Norma

Rosalind - too connected to 'Rose' for me.

Celia - It's alright, like.

Vita. Good namesake as well.

I like Joan, Calzone!

Oooooh, Vita!

Conceptua is nice (haven't RTFT!)
If you're looking for Biblical names, Ruth is lovely, or any variant of Eve or Mary (I am valiantly posting on, in the absence of RT whole Fucking T!).

Thank goodness!

But I really want you to go for Doris.

Well that doesn't say much about you I'm afraid, otherMitzi . The OP would receive a different reaction posting that sexist, outmoded claptrap on the main boards.

Do you like it?
Also like Valentina, but might be a little on the poncy side for you.

What does "too North London" mean???

I'm off to name change soon, not now.

I will be back to my usual posting name tomorrow, reuset. It would be silly to post on the same thread under a different name, now wouldn't it. You seem to be the only offended Catholic here. And what has your nationality or heritage got to do with your being offended?

And why are you even posting of the thread when you don't have anything constructive to contribute? If you really believe the OP is offensive, maybe just report it to MN?

Vera.

My Mum was going to be called Lesbia........

MitzyLeFrouf isn't otherMitzy....I'm otherMitzy!

I know a brilliant take-no-prisoners Vida... I wonder if it is the same one!

reuset I'm really not bothered as to your opinion of me. The fact of the matter is is that any Catholic is more than entitled to be less than reverential towards the religion they were brought up in.

I suggest you learn how to deal with it as your prim outrage will wear you out.

I was pointing out that I was Catholic too. I'll mention my nationality if I see fit (minus any attached stereotypes or sexism )

Oh I do believe I have contributed something constructive. I dislike casual (any) sexism, and outmoded stereotypes of that nature and will speak out.

Mitzi we can be the Zwei Mitz-ei.

I really like Vita!

Valentina...not so much
