Everyone hates the name but I love it, what do you all think?

It’s lovely. Classic, will suit any career, easy to spell...

Nancy is lovely but Lorelai is a gorgeous name.
Bunty Nancy Ramona that's fab!

BinkyBuntyFintyCunty · 17/12/2017 23:42

Gorgeous!

I've loved it ever since reading Swallows and Amazons.

I don't particularly like it personally but I definitely don't hate it, and it's a damn sight better than some of the names going around in the world, lol xD

Not a fan, sorry

I think of Oliver Twist but I like it. Family were rude about dd name but actually it was none of their business go for it if you like it

I love the name Nancy.

Much better than Sienna.

pipilangstrumpf · 18/12/2017 07:36

I find Sienna beautiful and feminine!

Nancy sounds frumpy and inelegant imo.

Not RTFT. Nancy is a form of Ann/Anne.
I like it but prefer Ann or Annie.

Choccyhobnob · 18/12/2017 15:43

Never knew this was such a marmite name! Personally I love it. I know a little Irish one called Nainsi too.

MikeUniformMike · 18/12/2017 15:57

Mr & Mrs Cameron have a Nancy.

lovelyjubilly · 19/12/2017 09:09

I love it. Why are you discussing it with family members though? Stop it now.

Lweji · 19/12/2017 15:54

Nothing wrong with Nancy. It's the name of my favourite childhood doll.

horatioisabrick · 19/12/2017 16:00

I like it. Nancy is cute :)

nancyclancy123 · 19/12/2017 16:55

Nancy is lovely btw!
