Not planning on using it (think the one currently under manufacture is another boy) but just heard this on the school run - what do you think?
On one hand I think 'Gaynor' but the more I think about it, the more I like it...

I say it in a Colombian accent like Modern Family.

I want some baby cheeses now.

Love it Smile

I really like it.

I don't know anyone called Gloria, so to me it is just the Latin word for glory. I think it sounds elegant and a bit exotic.

Gloria is a kick-arse name. I love it.

I love it. DH didn't love it enough. DD uses it for her dolls regularly.

Glory, as in glory hole? Hmm, not sure that would work.

Gloria is a bit 'praise' for me. Sorry.

I've had that song stuck in my head all day now Hmm

Hunniford was what immediately sprung to my mind! I suspect we are about 5 years away from Gloria being 'vintage', currently it just sounds dated to my ears.

JakeyBurd · 09/06/2015 22:03

I think it's a fabulous name - I always imagine someone who looks like Rita Hayworth.

I think you'd need a larger-than-life personality to carry it off though. Hmm

Think it is brilliant. I would love to be called Gloria.
