Eartha

[8Iris8]

Is this a nice name? Or not?
Thanks!

The famous Eartha Kitt was a real sex symbol . Look on YouTube .

Sorry, but it's awful.

Awful.

Can't hear it without thinking of Eartha Kitt.

It's harsh sounding like Bertha or Arthur. Wouldn't be my choice and I'd feel some pity for a child to have such a name.

Well, we all know what an Eartha Kitt is slang for ...

More likely to think of the rhyming slang than the singer.

I like it

My first thought was Eartha Kitt too.
She was a real seed symbol of her time and a brilliant actress too.
I think it's an unusual name, but I like it.

Sex not seed... Thank you auto correct.

You hear Eartha, you think Kitt, you think shit.

Nope nope nope 😬

it's the first time I have ever seen a name suggestion on Mumsnet that I like and could comment on! it's a beautiful name x

I immediately thought Eartha Kitt too so I guess it depends on whether you're comfortable with the association, probably won't be relevant to your DC's generation though

A friend of my parents had a t-shirt with Jim Royle on it saying "I'm off for an Eartha Kitt".

Sorry, it's a no from me.

Not.

I love it!

Good for a cat too!

Eew? Really?? Makes me think of earthworms

I’m going for an Eartha ... nope 👎🏻 💩

Ah. I didn’t know about the rhyming slang. Back to the drawing board.
Thank you for your opinions everyone. I think it’s a nice name but I wouldn’t want to saddle her with a name that she would eventually hate us for haha :)

👍👍👍

What about Gaia? It means 'earth'

Yeah it’s a shame that the rhyming slang has kinda ruined that name. I’d never use it but it is a nice name!

Like Bertha?

I've never heard of the rhyming slang. Shame. I quite like it. How about Martha?

Horrible. My first thought was Eartha Kitt / shit.
