What about Juliette?

And is it seen as posh, or common, or ordinary? Thanks

I love it. My fantasy girl twins would be called Josephine and Juliet. I'd probably chose that spelling though. Seems neater.

SuckingEggs · 05/10/2015 23:51

It'll be misspelt a fair bit. I love Juliet, though.

DramaAlpaca · 05/10/2015 23:54

It's OK, but I prefer the spelling & pronunciation of Juliet. Juliette is a bit frilly for me, tbh.

wigglesrock · 05/10/2015 23:58

I think it's lovely, it floated about for a while when we were considering names for dd3, but yes you've guessed it - Grin I prefer the spelling Juliet

mrstweefromtweesville · 05/10/2015 23:58

Juliet is slightly better but both versions are a bit fanciful.

manicinsomniac · 06/10/2015 00:00

Love it. And I like the ette spelling better than the et - but then I do like frilly!

I don't think it's overly posh. Fairly normal I'd say. But quite uncommon

TabithaTwitchEye · 06/10/2015 00:01

Beautiful (but spelled Juliet, for me).

celtictoast · 06/10/2015 00:05

I like it.

Allalonenow · 06/10/2015 00:09

It's very pretty, and I like your spelling of it.

Paddletonio · 06/10/2015 00:14

I think it's more middle to posh, not really common.

Lovely name IMO but prefer Juliet spelling.

MyFavouriteClintonisGeorge · 06/10/2015 00:15

Bravo!

Sorry. It's ok, not mad keen.

CakeRattleandRoll · 06/10/2015 02:49

I like it. Either spelling is fine.

Canyouforgiveher · 06/10/2015 03:06

If I had another girl, she would have been Juliet.

mrsschu · 06/10/2015 05:11

It's neither posh nor common, just a normal name. I like it but would also spell it Juliet.

rubybloom2 · 06/10/2015 07:12

I like it too! Either spelling seems fine. I knew one who went by Jools.

WhyCantIuseTheNameIWant · 06/10/2015 08:34

I know of 2. One adult (30s)
One pre-teen (11/12?)

I went to school with a third.

Pretty name.

Only1scoop · 06/10/2015 08:37

I think it's a lovely name. I have a relative and a friend with the name. It's a timeless classic.

Bootiful

LemonPied · 06/10/2015 08:39

It's beautiful

99percentchocolate · 06/10/2015 08:48

I love it and have it on my list for this DC. Like both spellings, probably prefer "ette" but it would always be misspelled.

Alisvolatpropiis · 06/10/2015 08:58

It's lovely

squoosh · 06/10/2015 12:39

Love Juliet. And it's hardly used at all which I think is baffling.

HackerFucker22 · 06/10/2015 14:17

My twin girls would be Jean and Juliet. Prefer that less 'fru-fru' spelling.

KoalaDownUnder · 06/10/2015 14:20

I think the spelling Juliette spoils it a bit, bit Juliet is pretty.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 06/10/2015 14:23

Very pretty. Could suit anyone. Prefer Juliet.

IsadoraQuagmire · 06/10/2015 14:24

I like either version (I'm a fan of Juliette Lewis, so that spelling makes me think of her)
I think i've only ever met one (spelled Juliet)
