Girls’ names you don’t hear every day

[WhiteHairReally]

I’m doing some research about the history of a girls’ school. I’m currently in the 1920s.

Do any of the following have any current appeal?

Florabel
Rhua
Lillias
Petrusa
Mima

And, a particular trend

Andrewina
Walteria
Davidina

And my particular favourite

Colina

I quite like Hubertine xD

Menaimum

She was definitely a Davidina, as opposed to the really quite pretty variants you’ve suggested. I didn’t notice if she was Andrewina’s sister. Another name with any number of more attractive alternatives.

Riotlady - each to their own. I’ve always had a soft spot for Albertine. It was the name of one of my grandmother’s favourite roses ( although the one I’ve planted in my garden, in Granny’s honour, is sulking and prone to black spot.)

Florence is a man’s name in Ireland.

Kester is cute

I think Andrina is quite nice although it does remind of a friend I went to primary school with who named one of her dolls Andrex!!
