Bridie?

[Callieviolet]

Opinions? Do you know any?

I think Bridget's a nice name. Maybe because I know a nice one.

Lovely name , you don't have to use Bridget.

I think it sounds good in a Scottish or Irish accent where the R is really emphasised but I’m not sure about it in most English accents

Bryony could be an alternative?

In Scotland we eat bridies - delicious with beans

Hideous name. Right up there with Graínne and Gobnait. 🤢

Ah now! There's nothing worse than Gobnait. That's in a category of ugly all by itself.

My DBs cat is called birdie. Deffo not a human name.

It’s Bridie, not birdie. And it’s definitely a human name, of very longstanding Celtic origin.

I have one in my family, she's 5

We have a 16 year old in our family, it's a beautiful name.

Agreed 😂

@CockSpadget 😂 oh yeah my mistake! Sorry.

Please google forfar bridie

I know a Bridie, she's mid 40's and she's a lovely elegant lady xx

Hang on - Gobnait? Is that seriously a name? That is really horrible.

Bridie is cute OP.

McMahon. Bridie McMahon (sorry big Partridge fan...)

My childminder when I was 5 or 6 was called Bridie. Old (to me then - she could have been anywhere north of 45) Irish lady. I’ve never met another one.

I like it short for Bridget

I know one in her 30s.

My nana was known as Bridie. I love it. Her full name was Bridget but only ever known as Bridie or Birdie.

Lol I just caught up with the comments. I can confirm that my nana was indeed an old Irish lady. But I still love Bridie!

It’s a meat pie

My mum, about to turn 80. Has always disliked her name, thinks it’s ‘eejity-sounding’. It’s the Irish equivalent of Gladys or any of the grandma chic names that haven’t been revived.

I know a 15 yo one, short for Bridget. I like it.

Beautiful.
