Also, for Greta, do you automatically assume this is some variation of Margaret?

Already have one of those on your list so can't be thinking too 'out there' if you're thinking they're similar/a match Smile

Thanks everyone so far. Need a cuppa and a cake (essentials?) and a good read through with DH

I'd never clicked that Greta was a variation of Margaret.

Instantly thought Martha.

MitzyLeFrouf · 23/09/2016 21:31

What about Pamela? I bet the North London hipsters will be all over that name in 5 years time.

I don't assume Greta is a form of Margaret. It makes me think of Greta Garbo, and that's an awesome association.

How about:
