Alice

[Fluffykins1986]

Interested in thoughts on this name.
Would be used with a very unusual, pretty, one syllable middle name.

Love it

It is a name that has served me well for several decades x it’s also my dd and dn’s middle name. Family connection. I do have a fondness for it!

Thanks! Should add, middle name is already chosen :)

I think it's 2nd to Elizabeth in the timeless classic stakes - so Alice is pretty much a "can't go wrong name" imo. Someone on here will always mention the Chubby Brown song puts them off or the fact it looks like "A Lice" - but the fact it's been popular for so long (but rarely top 10 popular) and so there are lots of namesakes and it won't date, overcomes that to me.

Thank you! That’s exactly what I want: I absolutely do not want something that’s top 20 now, and will always be “very 2021”! Keen to avoid a name that is growing in popularity. If everyone could stop using Alice that would be great 🤣

I love it. It was my first choice name but decided against as a close male relative is called Alex (same surname) and it sounded too similar.

I’m not personally a massive fan but I think it’s fine and no one would ever be embarrassed to be called Alice. Surely somewhere near the Top 20 though? Feels like it’s a steadily popular name.

What’s the unusual and pretty middle name? Feel free to tell me to mind my beeswax!

Lovely name

It’s just dropped from 25 to 30, so it’s definitely popular. I think I more mean a name that’s stormed into top 20 and will storm out again just as fast! 😊
I won’t say the middle name but there are fewer than 10 in the UK each year and I think it’s lovely!
Thanks all 😊

I love it
It’s timeless and classic
It suits young and old alike and can’t really be dated

I have a 10yo Alice. Still love her name.

Our Alice is nearly 20. Still suits her.

I wanted Alice soooo bad. Always had my heart set on it. Unfortunately it’s too close to my DH’s name … and he refused to change his… arse

Alice is lovely, I have Alys on my list which is the Welsh spelling. It's a great name, as a PP said classic and timeless as it's never been uber popular at any point so won't date.

It will also go nicely with a more unusual middle name.

Love Alice. Please tell us the middle name I’m intrigued.

LOVE Alice

I love it, it’s my middle name and as I hate my first name I’ve always wished it was my name.

Love it. Pretty but strong, timeless classic.

I love it. It's my DD's middle name and I was almost sad that we used it in case we had another daughter one day (we had a boy). But it's beautiful and I sometimes call DD Alice if she doesn't respond to her real name

Beautiful name

I love it

Lovely simple classic name that works as an adult or child. I think it's really pretty.

Love it. Only know one so it's not too popular.

My DD's name, she is 18 now, it was always my favourite girl's name from being quite young so I was very relieved that my DH agreed to it

My Alice also has quite an unusual middle name

It's very much a timeless classic
