Know a 6 Yr old Claudia in my nieces class. It's a lovely name.

Yes I know two. One aged 7, one aged 2.

I have a 13 year old one😊

I know one who’s seven. It’s a really lovely name.

I know of one who is in her 40s. I always thought her name was nice and she's a lovely girl.
All good connotations for me.

My friends daughter is called Claudia. She's 16.

avocadotofu · 12/04/2023 20:24

I know a family friend who's in her 60s, she's really lovely. It's a beautiful name, and it was on our shortlist.

My DD is Claudia
I'm absurdly proud that she loves her name

Parker231 · 12/04/2023 20:36

My PA at work, in her early 30’s is a Claudia - her sister is Camilla . Both names I like.

Luredbyapomegranate · 12/04/2023 20:52

I know one in her late 20s

It’s a great name

Never common enough to be ‘an old person’s name’ but I think it was more popular in the 30s-50s so about due a revival

HappiDaze · 12/04/2023 20:58

Yes I know a Cloud-ia

Goneback2school · 12/04/2023 21:01

I know of one, she's 9 or 10. She's of Polish origin, it's spelled with a K and pronounced Cloud -ia

Notanotherarguement · 12/04/2023 21:01

I know of a child Claudia, unfortunately she's a spoilt attention seeking brat.

Wetnwindy · 12/04/2023 21:03

Yes a 28 year old. Beautiful name.

linziere · 12/04/2023 21:05

Met a newborn baby Claudia (and her mum) through work last month. Lovely name.

Notgotanyidea · 12/04/2023 21:07

1 aged late 30’s and 2 aged 12.

nicetoseetgesunsout · 12/04/2023 21:07

I know one and she's lovely. (I'm 52 and met her at Brownies)
Then, only Claudia Winkleman.
It's a lovely name

MaryShelley1818 · 12/04/2023 21:08

I know two...both young teenagers and both pronounced "Claw-dia" so that definitely not age related.

Angliski · 12/04/2023 21:09

Several actually.

HappyMe6 · 12/04/2023 21:10

The only Claudia I knew was my lovely cat that was her name lovely cat lovely name

WithASpider · 12/04/2023 21:10

My Goddaughter - she's 22.

Jagley · 12/04/2023 21:26

I know one who is mid 20s, lovely name.

SkaneTos · 12/04/2023 22:14

Claudia is a beautiful name!
It reminds me of the character Claudia Kishi in the book series "The Baby-Sitters Club" (1980's/90's).

miniaturepixieonacid · 12/04/2023 22:26

I know one aged 13. She's Spanish. Never met another one.

Dassams · 12/04/2023 22:28

I think the unfortunate meaning (disabled/lame in Latin) puts many people off so it's never very popular
