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

Well done @Ellmau

Ellmau · 15/05/2022 01:28

Thank you :)

finallychangedmyusername · 15/05/2022 21:29

Mary?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 16/05/2022 21:09

No.

Her friend talked to animals.

finallychangedmyusername · 16/05/2022 22:05

Eliza?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 17/05/2022 00:38

No, but I like your thinking :)

More saintly.

ThatshallotBaby · 17/05/2022 20:11

Clare?

Ellmau · 17/05/2022 20:45

Yes! Clare or Claire. Named for the saint who was a friend of St Francis of Assisi, and founded an order of nuns called the Poor Clares. Well done.

ThatshallotBaby · 18/05/2022 06:37

Thank you!
now got to think of another one Smile

finallychangedmyusername · 22/05/2022 20:55

Well done @ThatshallotBaby, looking forward to the next one!

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 26/05/2022 17:11

Sorry for delay

She would have been spoilt at Easter, in the bosom of her loving aristocratic family

finallychangedmyusername · 28/05/2022 07:38

Carmela?

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 28/05/2022 19:25

Nope
She had a tragic death and many pretenders

Ellmau · 29/05/2022 19:07

Mary?

ThatshallotBaby · 29/05/2022 21:15

Nope
where east meets west

finallychangedmyusername · 30/05/2022 20:49

Aurora?

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 01/06/2022 07:58

No
Her family was at the absolute top of the aristocracy.

Recently her name was used for the heroine of a racy read

finallychangedmyusername · 01/06/2022 21:55

Anastasia?

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 02/06/2022 07:41

Yes!
well done

finallychangedmyusername · 02/06/2022 21:46

A blooming lovely name for a lady who smells feminine and floral. She's the type you might want to alt(ernatively) add a four-digit number to, either option starting 02.

OP posts:
finallychangedmyusername · 05/06/2022 19:54

She smells feminine and floral when she spritzes a bit of herself.

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 05/06/2022 20:50

Anais?

finallychangedmyusername · 05/06/2022 23:58

Not Anais, but you are close with your thinking.

OP posts:
ThatshallotBaby · 06/06/2022 22:11

Samsara?
it’s the number reference that’s getting me!

Ellmau · 06/06/2022 23:19

Coco?
