Names on adults

[whatausername]

What names have you come across on adults and thought were particularly nice names? So many names seem lovely when a cute baby or child is involved. Which names are also lovely on adults?

A tricky question I know, some people mix their thoughts on a name with their feelings about the person. Me too to some extent!

Alexandra
Charlotte
Lucy
Emma

Alexander
Quentin
Marcus
Edward

Vanessa
Jonathan

Ari
Kit
Imogen
I know Teddy is quite popular now but think Teddy on love island’s name is nice because he’s an adult

Julia
Polly

Caleb
Heath

Amelia
Lucy
Charlotte

Good idea for a thread.

Chloe
Ramona
Renée
Flora
Hazel
Annie Lucy
Annabelle
Eva
Monica
Yvonne
Sophie

Perry
Ross
Jonathan
Joel
Philip

Katherine
Serena
Rupert

Some names seem more striking on adults though when they don't seem to fit with their age group.

@sarah13xx I really disliked Teddy pre this years love island because I could never see it on a man... now I think it's gorgeous!

I love Edward, so I'd probably go with that and use Teddy/Ted as a nickname.

Kit is my absolute fave name too! We have similar taste!

Valentina
Anastasia
Juliet
Rosa
Rowena
Merryn

Edmund
Patrick
Alistair

Valentina is gorgeous. I really like Edmund and Patrick to. Edmund is underused when you think how popular Edward is.

Justine
Lucille

Patrick
Simon
Laurence
Martin

• too

These sorts of names. Old classics.

Just wait until all the Teddy's have grown up!

They'll probably want to be known by their full name Edward or Theodore when they're grown up.

Ah so you don't know anyone who just named their son Teddy as a full name. Because I do!

Teddys could go by Ted as adults if they find Teddy too cutesy.

But I still prefer Edward or Theodore personally.

Oh of course I'm sure they will go as Ted.

I much prefer Edward or Theodore too.
