Martha?

[BuffyFanForever]

Hi All, would love to know what people think of this name and if there’s any other similar type ones which we might like. Quite like 2 syllables and traditional. Know that isn’t to everyone’s tastes but I’ve got 2 already and would like them to sort of “go” 😊

Always loved it, Handsmaids Tail has dampened it a bit. How about Lotta or Margot

Lovely name! It would have been on my girl list only it sounds ridiculous with our surname.
Ds1's first love (when he was 4!) was called Martha and she was a lovely little girl.

Its my favourite name. I love the Tom Waits song its gorgeous.

I have a Martha. Still absolutely love the name. As a pp said, it's cute when they're little and then ages well as they grow up.
She's the only one in her year at school but we do know another. Most importantly, she likes her name.
We (immediate family) call her Marf as a jokey nickname but no one else seems to shorten it.

It makes me think of the biblical kitchen drudge and the hand maids tale, so no.

I like the vintage vibe but not the sound.

sounds like a scullery maid to me.
not keen.

I think Martha is so pretty. But also a strong name … I don’t like ‘babyish’ names that don’t grow with you into adulthood.
The Martha I know has a sister called Grace
