I love the name Alice, but I feel like it's all over mumsnet at the moment. How many Alices do you know under the age of 2?

I know none and work with under 5s (also have 3 under 5s of my own)

The song is my first thought

Trinacham · 01/12/2021 06:32

None under the age of 2. I only went to school with 1 as well (I'm 31)

fortheloveofallthings · 01/12/2021 06:36

None. The only two I know are in their 20's

My mate's dd has Alice as a middle name. Dd thinks it Alice in Wonderland.. It's actually after Alice Cooper!!

One 10 year old.

CaffiSaliMali · 01/12/2021 09:54

None.

I know 4 women named Alice in their late 20s/early 30s plus one Alicia and one Alison in the same age bracket.

Alys (the Welsh version) is on my list. Alice/Alys is a great name IMO.

I know one little Alice. But unless you know where I am then I’m not sure that is useful. And if popularity is a concern then I’d look beyond that last couple of years. If you are in in England and Wales Alice has been in the top hundred for girls since the 1980s. Your daughter will only be in age groups for 18-21 years of her life. After that, she’ll be in mixed age groups and there will be 40 years worth of Alice’s all around her. Alice is a popular name and if that’s not for you, then I’d consider something else.

I don't know any little Alices.

It's a beautiful name! Classical and pretty and ageless. I would definitely go for it.

One 3

One 8

H03bags · 01/12/2021 19:41

I can think of three in their 30s, 1 in their 20s and two toddlers. It's name which seems to age well.

HoundofHades · 01/12/2021 19:46

One, mid-20s.

yellowflowersintherain · 01/12/2021 19:47

One

TheCreamCaker · 01/12/2021 19:57

I've got an 11 year old relative named Alice. The only other 2 I've ever known were both in their 80s

Kippersfortea · 01/12/2021 19:57

None.

BiscuitLover3679 · 01/12/2021 19:58

2 that have just turned 2 if that counts

Heartofglass12345 · 01/12/2021 19:58

I doubt anyone under 35 knows that song do they??
If you like it, use it Smile

BiscuitLover3679 · 01/12/2021 19:59

And about 5 from school (early 30s) but not many in-between

itssquidstella · 01/12/2021 20:08
