I like Miriam.

The rest aren't to my taste at all, but I'd be OK with Joyce as a middle name.

BeBraveAndBeKind · 27/10/2020 22:32

Martha

MrsBungle · 27/10/2020 22:34

Gloria or Martha.

Britannah · 27/10/2020 22:36

Martha - it’s on my shortlist x

Harmarsuperstar · 27/10/2020 22:39

Martha or miriam
Don't like Gloria or Wendy
Joyce is ok

MoonlightInVermont · 27/10/2020 22:41

Martha

AmyFl · 27/10/2020 22:44

Miriam

Toontown · 27/10/2020 22:45

Martha or Miriam. Wendy is a big no

Happenchance · 27/10/2020 22:51

I prefer Joyce. I hate Wendy.

I much prefer Mirren to Miriam.

Ladderofyears · 27/10/2020 22:55

Miriam.
Then Martha.
I think the others are awful - sorry!

JamieFrasersSwingingKilt · 27/10/2020 23:11

All a bit dated - and not in a good way, I'm afraid. Maybe Miriam at a push because it's a classic biblical name.

Firebird83 · 27/10/2020 23:40

Gloria or Miriam. Martha is nice too!

thisldo · 27/10/2020 23:48

I don't like any. Sorry

BillysMyBunny · 27/10/2020 23:53

I quite like Martha and then don’t like any of the others at all, they all seem dated but not quite old enough to have come back around yet. I really can’t imagine a baby called Wendy, Joyce or Miriam!

EzioAuditore · 28/10/2020 00:00

Miriam (the two I know both often get called Miri, which I love) or Martha

NoCureForLove · 28/10/2020 00:07

Gloria! Fabulous name!

TheVanguardSix · 28/10/2020 00:10

Gloria

Kanaloa · 28/10/2020 00:20

Miriam & Martha are nice, Wendy is ok. I prefer Joy to Joyce as I think it sounds less dated. I do really like Gloria in theory but I would worry about glory-hole associations.

janetmendoza · 28/10/2020 00:22

I like all of these but faves are Joyce and Wendy

AdaColeman · 28/10/2020 00:27

Gloria is my favourite, Martha is my least favourite.

RoseMartha · 28/10/2020 00:31

Martha

DownThePlath · 28/10/2020 00:38

Miriam. Don't like the others

micc · 28/10/2020 04:23

Martha or Wendy I love x

Rainbowqueeen · 28/10/2020 04:58

Martha

joystir59 · 28/10/2020 05:05

I think these are dowdy names, sorry.
