Ada

[Turnturnturn2]

What do people think of this name?

Fabulous name!

Love this, it’s on my shortlist. Just need to convince DH. 40+2 today so not long left (I hope!!)

I also love Ada.. but it's been met with scorn every time I've mentioned it so I've learned to keep shut now!

Beautiful name!

Would be a fab name were it not for Ada Wells
That would put me off

I love it. My sister is an Ada and she's lovely.

Lovely name but it puts me off that there's no nickname for it. I prefer Ava.

My MiL was an Ada but known as Mary. I think Ada is far cooler. My boss is also an Ada, she's in her 20s.

I quite like it but I think there would be a lifetime of mispronunciation. 'Aye da' vs 'A da'.

I really like it

Love it

I love it. Was tip of my girls list but DH hates it so we are going with something else (providing it's a girl)

Really love it

I should add I love is because of Ada Lovelace. I like kick ass women and DH works in IT so seemed appropriate

I used to love Ava but there are so many Avas around now.

Sorry but I'm not keen. I dont like all
the old granny names like Ivy, Mabel and Ada.

Yep my little one is an Ada but we went with the biblical spelling of Adah.

I'm going against the general trend on the thread here, but I find it dowdy & frumpy. I normally like short, neat names but I'm not a fan of that one.

I much prefer Ava.

Love it.

Prefer it to Adeline, Adelaide and Ava, btw.

I thought it was pronounced 'Ay-da'. Have never heard it pronounced differently?

I hate it sorry.

Lovely. My friend's got a gorgeous one!

But Cis the real wells Ada Wells was amazing. I hate that that awful man has literally ruined her good name

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ada_Wells Sorry, autocorrect ruined my link!

Love it. Was on my list too

I liked it, OH didn't. Keep in mind that with 'Ava' being so popular, your DD may need to correct people who mishear, especially at school. Or she may develop excellent annunciation!
