Inspired by the Grandad thread!

Mine were Elizabeth and Hilda. One is a great name that I'd use, the other not so much.

Betty and Joyce. My gran Betty was so disappointed in her mum for calling her Betty rather than Elizabeth, she wished she had been given the choice to either be a Betty, Liz, Lizzy etc. So I named my daughter Elizabeth and she was over the moon.
