I didn't know people liked my name! Well done to my mother Wink

1horatio · 16/12/2016 12:36

And now I'm wondering what your name is, mamarach ;)

BeardofZeus · 16/12/2016 12:37

Bryonie is horrible in comparison to what it should be (Bryony) .. not that i am biased about a name which is dear to me in some small regard Wink

Raines100 · 16/12/2016 12:41

Why such an odd bunch of names?

Granny chic:
Maude is a really ugly name. Awful. Don't do it.
Evelyn is gorgeous. Best of the bunch.

80s Babies (these all feel a bit dated):
Shanice sounds like one of the Sugababes or something.
Lauren is boooring. I went to school with hundreds of them.
I've always liked Rachel.
Prefer Jenna to Jemma.
Carly- now I like this, but I have a feeling she hangs out with Gavins and Kevins and Waynes.

Top 10:
Isobel- lovely but popular

Nature:
Briony- not keen.

Muslim:
Aisha- nice if you have the right heritage, but I've met lots of grown women with this name, so it makes me wonder if it's dated in Islamic circles, too.

Most favourite, Bryony if you spell it properly. Least favourite, Shanice.

Favourite: Rachel
Least favourite: Shanice

mistermagpie · 16/12/2016 13:29

They are so different! Shanice and Maud on the same list?

Maud is terrible, Rachel is the best of the bunch.

SorenaJ · 16/12/2016 13:30

Isobel with that spelling is not popular. It's #113 for England/Wales.

Ankleswingers · 16/12/2016 22:30

Isobel is lovely.

Shanice is hideous I also know one who is a total bitch

Maud slightly better than Shanice.

NameChange30 · 16/12/2016 22:36

Favourites are Isobel and Evelyn.
Hate the rest.
Bryonie is better spelt Bryony.
Jemma is better spelt Gemma (or there's Jenna)
Whatever you do please don't go for Shanice or Maud!

1horatio · 16/12/2016 22:38

I went to school with a Shanice. Lovely girl. But I always thought she wrote her name as Jeanice... but I may be wrong.

Anyway, I really don't like the name.

littlepinkgiraffe · 16/12/2016 22:49

Favourite - Isobel
Least - Maud and Shanice

RebelandaStunner · 16/12/2016 22:53
