Is this an 'old lady' name?

[rockinmum]

Lorna Margaret......just found out we are having a girl and this is the name we like, but I've just ben told it is an old lady name!

I have a cousin called Lorna who was born in the 1930s. But names go in and out of fashion. Alice used to be a very old fashioned name but it's come back in.

I like Lorna but not Margaret

It's your choice!

I do keep thinking of Moody Margaret in Horrid Henry! But it is an infinitely adaptable name.

I love the name Lorna.

I love Lorna. I think it's a name that suits all ages from baby to old lady.

Go for it.

Yes. And tell the miseryguts who objected that you hope one day she will be an old lady. Your baby that is, not her.

I like Lorna but not Margaret, it may become her embarassing middle name. just reminds me of Mrs Thatcher.

as in Lorna Doone? I don't think it sounds old lady, but it is quite old fashioned - not that that's a bad thing. What does it mean?

I knew a girl called Lorna in school and peole used to take the mickey out of her because of her name. Kids can be shallow I know but because of that I do think it is an old fashioned name
