Georgia?

[QueueNotCue]

Not for me but for a pregnant friend.

What are your thoughts on this? My friend loves it but had a negative reaction to it from a family member and is now unsure about using it.

She already has another DC with a short name and so doesn’t want to go for Georgina.

Honest opinions please.

Thanks

I think Georgia is a beautiful name

Georgia is a good name. I like Georgina too but quite a different name.

If your friend loves it she should take no notice of what her family thinks and just use it.

As you've asked for honest opinions, it's not a name I like, tbh, I think Georgina is so much more classic and elegant. To me Georgia is a place name and I'm not keen on those.

Lovely name

I love it. It's elegant, feminine, not too common and a zillion times better than Georgina.

Thanks all, I will pass your feedback onto her

I don’t like it. It’s very downmarket now. Might have been OK 20, 30 years ago. But it was always going to be too Southern State for me, as well as a country.

I really like it.

I like the name itself personally prefer Georgina but each to their own.
I wouldn't use either though as they're not for me.

I like it. I like Georgie even more

It's okay, not one of my personal favourites, but it's nice. Just make sure your friend doesn't spell it as Jorja or some other weird creative spelling.

I like it

Don’t worry about negative reactions. There’s no name in existence that’s universally loved. Plus opinions change over time. I gave my child a name that I used to hate.

It’s lovely

Not my taste but it's a perfectly good name.

It's a lovely name but I am definitely biased. It's traditional but not very common. A classic!

Probably one of the only classic names I actually like! I think it's lovely!

I think it’s beautiful

to me it's a place name, as in the song georgia on my mind.
georgina, or even georgiana, sound better, or georgette.

Georgia a classic? Nope, it's really not. George and Georgina/Georgiana are traditional and classic, Georgia isn't.

I don’t like it. Georgina is much nicer.

Lovely, harmless, perfectly acceptable name. Nothing bad to say about it.

I think it’s lovely.

Love it.

I know and love a Georgia... Georgie for "short"
