Guessing game V!

Merry twixmas! Xmas Grin

We have reached thread 5(!) of the baby names Guessing Game.

This was the (brilliant) brain child of @scotstar back in March 2018. Smile

All are welcome, rules of this game are pretty straightforward - someone describes a name. Whoever solves the clues is then in charge of describing the next name. Simple! Make the clues as fiendish or straightforward as you like. Grin

finallychangedmyusername · 01/06/2021 13:32

... according to one of their songs.

OP posts:
finallychangedmyusername · 06/06/2021 09:16

This name was popular from the 1960s through to the 1990s.

OP posts:
Ellmau · 06/06/2021 09:53

Heather!

finallychangedmyusername · 06/06/2021 16:05

Yea, @Ellmau!

Actress depicting Felicity:

  • Heather Graham plays Felicity Shagwell ("good in bed!") in Austin Powers

Model wife to a popstar:

  • Heather Mills (wife of Paul McCartney).

Tiny singer in a cluster of humans, one of whom heads up MI6:

  • "M" heads up MI6 in the Bond films.
  • A cluster of humans is "people" 🤣
  • M + People = M People
  • Singer is Heather Small ("tiny"!)
  • "traversing in an upwards fashion" = arguably M People's most famous song, "Moving on Up". Grin

Think pink/floral:

  • Refers to the shrub with pink flowers called heather

Scottish:

  • Heather from the Scottish word haeddre. Also the heather plant is native to Scotland.
Popular in the 1960s the 1990s... : (and not currently) Grin

Over to you @Ellmau!
