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

LadyGAgain · 14/07/2021 00:01

Precious?

Ellmau · 14/07/2021 10:49

No.

OP posts:
Ellmau · 14/07/2021 20:37

Yes, Gemma!

Your go!

finallychangedmyusername · 14/07/2021 20:41

Fly away with this popular, regal, hardworking girl. AJ is known to misbehave.

OP posts:
finallychangedmyusername · 18/07/2021 18:22

She has many nickname possibilities.

OP posts:
Ellmau · 18/07/2021 19:47

Elizabeth?

finallychangedmyusername · 18/07/2021 20:17

Not Elizabeth, sorry.

OP posts:
finallychangedmyusername · 19/07/2021 18:29

AJ is a big clue.

OP posts:
Escourtie · 20/07/2021 18:19

Catherine?

finallychangedmyusername · 20/07/2021 21:42

Not Catherine sorry. She took a similar route to Columbus.

OP posts:
Escourtie · 22/07/2021 19:20

Naomi

finallychangedmyusername · 22/07/2021 22:16

Not Naomi, sorry.

"Fly away"... is a clue to a famous namesake.

OP posts:
LadyGAgain · 23/07/2021 00:24

All i keep thinking is Randy. But I don't know how she links to any clues other than Fly Away Blush

finallychangedmyusername · 23/07/2021 13:24

Grin sorry, not Randy. You can fly away with her as she's an aviator.

OP posts:
Escourtie · 23/07/2021 18:36

Amelia

finallychangedmyusername · 23/07/2021 20:21

Correct @Escourtie!

Fly away = aviator Amelia Earhart (who crossed the Atlantic, as did Colombus)
Popular = Amelia has been consistently in the top ten most popular UK girls names for the last decade
Regal = Princess Amelia of the UK (daughter of George III)
Hardworking = Amelia means work/industrious/hardworking
AJ = Enid Blyton's Amelia Jane books (including Naughty Amelia Jane!)

Over to you! Grin
