I am expecting no.3 and struggling with girls names. My other 2 have classic, international names (I think). They are names that have been around for many hundreds of years anyway. Any thoughts on Judith? I want timeless, easy to shorten names, not fussy or overly pretty or trendy names.
Thanks

I like Jude but not Judith...bit too frumpy sounding for me. Imagine her as a funky teenager.

Awful, sorry

I love the name Judith. It is very beautiful, and has one of the most lovely and worthy nicknames, Jude. For me, the only name that runs Judith/Jude close, is Emily/Em.
Emily sounds more feminine and melodic, but there is just something about Judith that I cannot describe and owns by heart.
Judith is such a beautiful name.

Gah! Posted on the wrong thread!

I love Judith. I'm considering it for DC if a girl, along with Ruth and Esther. No-nonsense names!

Yes, Judith is a very nice name.

But why, oh why do people insist on bumping old threads?

I like it, feels fresh and strong. As for Julie, Good, and I can't emphasise this enough, grief.

It's fine as a name. Another option Helen? Helen had a face to launch a thousand ships. Judith beheaded Holofernes...

She is called Meg!
