Shirley or ?

[ClaraBean]

Thanks for all the opinions on my other thread 😄
Dh and I have continued to ponder and have decided Susan is no longer on our list, but we have added a couple of others that we are now considering. So our updated list is
Shirley (my favourite for years)
Bernadette (Bernie or Ettie for nn)
Marjorie
Magnolia

Dh likes nn Madge for Marjorie 😄

@ImperioMarch , Suzi Quatro is Suzi not Susi, and was probably cool enough to carry it off or start a trend. Suzanne/Suzi seems very1970s .
Susi looks like a typo for Sushi.

I just read elsewhere that christine bleakleyband frank lampard's daughter is called Patricia.

@TreePoser , his mother was Pat, so the baby was probably named in honour of her grandmother. Patricia is a nice name

I thought I would pop back on, as I love it when a poster comes back to a thread and we can find out what the baby ends up being named!
Anyhow, our baby was born three weeks ago, and we named her Shirley!!! We had some other options but none we loved as much as Shirley and she could really never have been anything else. She is utterly adorable!

I don't like any of them. Sorry.

Congratulations @ClaraBean
Thanks for the update. A big welcome for little Shirley!

Welcome little Shirley, congratulations! I would have really regretted not using it because others didn’t like it- as it is, in real life I’ve had loads of people love Shirley ❤️

Good for you @ClaraBean ! Congratulations on baby Shirley, I bet she is adorable.x

Great name

Yay!
Congratulations and I'm so glad you chose Shirley.

If you have a son, make sure to call him Keith or Nigel.

I like bernadette nn etta or ettie. We are considering that
Love Magnolia and nn Maggie
I dont like the others but do like Susanna/susie

Aw just seen you went with Shirley - cute.

We have a friend with a Patsy that everyone thought was old fashioned when they first suggested and now shes here its perfect

And I bet it’s perfect for her! Congratulations and welcome baby Shirley. Hope you’re all doing well 💐

Huge congrats, from one Shirley to another!

Lovely name & congratulations!

How about Rita? Love that name.

Awww Congratulations. I hope this doesn't offend you but to me Shirley is one of those names that's so awful its adorable. A baby Shirley how cute is that. .😂

Massive congratulations. Lovely name.

Sorry I don't like any. Did you consider Susanna?

Sorry I've just seen that your baby already has a name! Love that you've gone with a name that you love. If we all liked the same thing the world would be a very boring place!
Congratulations!

Congratulations! Lovely name op

Sorry but literally anything but Shirley, Madge or Marjorie. Have you gone out of your way to think of awful names?!

Congratulations on the birth of baby Shirley. I’m so glad you stuck to your guns and went with what you both loved the most! ❤️❤️ Thank you for updating as well . 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Shirley just makes me think old lady with a blue rinse...
