Jody?

[babysleephelp]

You don't hear this name too much anymore (or at least I don't!).

What are peoples opinions please?

And would you spell Jody as above, or Jodie?

Thanks!

Agree. It's chavvy.

Imagine it on an adult professional? Just, no.

I know a doctor called Jodie so it's not exactly taxing my imagination to imagine it on other adult professionals.

@JodienotJody love that! You're a genius!

I really like it.

It was a memorable moment 😂

Jodie is nice as is Joely

I like it but only for a boy. However, the only man I know with that name hates it and goes by Joe.

I'm an adult professional called Jodie. I'm a senior academic at a university. I'm the youngest Head of Department at my institution and I travel the world talking about my subject.

Being called Jodie clearly hasn't held me back 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hi Jodie 👋 I’m also a professional too in a very competitive field so it hasn’t held me back either! ☺️

Good to hear of Jodie's who are proud of their name and achievements 👏🙌

Nice, feels Antipodean to me (no idea why).
Weird that anyone thinks it's chavvy. I only ever met one, she is 14 and quite posh.
Is there some random council estate where it is a local name?

Boy or girl?, relevant.
There both nice. I think for males the name Jody is more popular in the US. It's still good though.

It’s not a horrible name but does seem to have a “downmarket” perception. As does my own (different) name 🤷🏻‍♀️

It reminds me of Jodie Foster. I don't think it's a bad name but it is rather dated. It's kind of a mum name at this point.

I've never met a male Jodie. I wasn't aware it was even used for boys.
