Charlotte has become so popular since the princess was born and I also know a few Lottie's as full name

Jessica is quite nice but was done to death 15ish years ago and is yet to feel fresh agai

Lydia

Lucia. If I had a girl she would definitely be a Lucia. Lydia is nice but I still imagine the Muppets singing the Groucho Marx song:

Lydia, oh Lydia
Say, have you met Lydia?
Lydia The Tattooed Lady.
She has eyes that folks adore so,
And a torso even more so.
Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclopedia.
Oh Lydia The Queen of Tattoo.
On her back is The Battle of Waterloo.
Beside it, The Wreck of the Hesperus too.
And proudly above waves the red, white, and blue.
You can learn a lot from Lydia!

La-da-da... da-da-dum.
La-da-da... da-da-dum.

She can give you a view of the world in tattoo
If you step up and tell her where.
For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paree,
Or Washington crossing The Delaware.

La-da-da... da-da-dum.
Ooh-Doo-Doo... doo-doo...

Lydia, oh Lydia, say, have you met Lydia?
Oh Lydia The Tattooed Lady.
When her muscles start relaxin',
Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson.
Lydia, oh Lydia, oh have you met Lydia.
Oh Lydia The Champ of them all.
She once swept an Admiral clear off his feet.
The ships on her hips made his heart skip a beat.
And now the old boy's in command of the fleet,
For he went and married Lydia!

Sorry to lower the tone but I really loved the muppets when I was little. I had the record...

Jessica

Lydia - Chlamydia
Charlotte - Lovely
Jessica - Lovely, but will be called Jess or Jessie. I love both!

Lottey90 · 13/09/2017 19:31

Charlotte.... obviously Wink

ChocolateCrunch · 13/09/2017 20:49

Charlotte

PetalMettle · 13/09/2017 20:52

I love Charlotte. I did love Lydia until I told dh and he said chlamydia back at me.
Jessica feels a bit 15 years ago to me even though it's still very popular

Kim82 · 13/09/2017 20:54

I have a Charlotte Jessica so I vote for either of those!

totsalot · 13/09/2017 21:03

A friend in baby group has a Charlotte Alice, and I have to say i absolutely love it. Her little girl is beautiful and has such a lovely little personality, I can't help but think fondly of it 😊

Sequence · 13/09/2017 21:17

Jessica

Fekko · 13/09/2017 22:53

I've just remembered 'Lydia teapot'. You'd only get that if you're from Glasgow!

Sophronia · 13/09/2017 23:17

Lydia

Normandy144 · 14/09/2017 02:35

I have a Charlotte but I love Lydia. If DH had liked Lydia too then that's what DD would be called.

Montsti · 14/09/2017 10:35

Definitely Charlotte!

I've never really liked Jessica & I'm not sure about Lydia...I really dislike Linda which is similar & I also think of chlamydia...

DeadButDelicious · 14/09/2017 10:48

Lydia!

Twickerhun · 14/09/2017 10:53

There aren't any nice shortenings for Lydia. It's a lovely full name. But gets shortened to lydy-loo which isn't nice imho

Scattymere · 14/09/2017 12:49

Charlotte too twee, Lydia too stuffy.

Love Jessica (& nn Jess) beautiful modern day celebs like Jessica Alba or Jessica Biel perfectly represent the type of girl/woman I think of when I hear it- always gorgeous, stylish and positive. Have always wished I was called this Envy - both my DH and ex DP stated they both think its the loveliest female name too.

ohshiz · 14/09/2017 12:50

Why is Lydia stuffy?
