Rivival ready?

[17caterpillars1mouse]

What do you think, is Eunice ready for a come back?

I really quite like it

It’s OK, but it’s the name of a character on Animal Crossing and I’d forever associate it with that. Like on the thread about the name Reggie - it's the name of my neighbours dog so I couldn’t separate it from that.

Nooooooooooooo.

Eunice goes to mass every day just so she can say 'I didn't see you at mass this morning, Mary', and she frowns furiously at people doing filthy things like holding hands in public.

I mean go for it if you love it.

(but noooooooooooooooooooo)

I like it

Revival?

I don't think it's ever really be in to be "revived". You might start a trend though if you do go with it.

Leave it to decompose.. No revival ever necessary..

I'm just relieved you aren't planning to call a baby Revival.

So sorry OP but it is not at all pretty to my ears. Let it lie.

Maybe not, but We do need to keep in mind not everyone is looking for a pretty name

Dear god, I hope not. Poor child!

I don't like it, it's very dated and not in a good way. Great aunts are called Eunice. And I have taught, over the years many boys called Yunis/Younis (and other spellings thereof) so when I hear it, I think boy.

I never knew it was in in the first place BUT whilst I don't think it is at first glance a very attractive name, there is nothing wrong with it so if you like it then go for it!

Nah, go for Bernice instead

Going against the grain here but I personally don't mind it. The 2 Eunice's I have known have been really funny, awesome and nice people! They don't put up with rubbish but are the first to lend a helping hand if you need it. Good memories so I like the name

Eunice is the name of my Eufy robot vacuum.

No, no one is going to thank you for being called Eunice.

There’s a Eunice in the fabulous film, What’s Up Doc. Upon being introduced to Eunice (who is rather an unfortunate creature), Barbra Streisand’s character says to herself in disbelief, “That’s a woman called Eunice!” That’s sort of how I feel about it too. I wouldn’t want to be called Eunice, and generally speaking I quite like less pretty names.

I personally think it's cool, although my DD has a similarly fusty, "she won't thank you for it" 🙄 name so that is my style. Honestly it's not that far from Edith, Lois etc for me. The sounds in it feel familiar and trendy though it isn't well-used, which imo is the sweet spot you want.

Nah - it’s stuck down there with Brenda and Beryl

sounds too much like Younis

I think it has a nice meaning, but I can't see it being revived any time soon. Not sure why - I mean, other names end in the -is/-ice sound like Iris, Lois and Beatrice are relatively popular. Maybe it's the Eun- part that puts people off?

I actually really like it.

My favourite girls names are Jean, Olive and Pearl (plus both DD have what would be ci

I don't what the fuck is up with stupid website today. I was saying as well as the names I like both my DD names would be considered "old lady"

I was looking at a list of names from 1900 and some of them I really like - Rosina, Susannah and Clara (which is popular now).
Eunice was on there, but I just don't like the sound of it.

NO
