beautiful name

SweetieDarling · 17/05/2008 00:01

Love Blythe

lollipopmother · 18/05/2008 15:32

I think it is quite a harsh name, but then I like 'pretty' names for girls and strong names for boys so I suppose I am quite traditional and boring.

MargaretMountford · 18/05/2008 15:33

not harsh,it's lovely,like Blithe spirit

lollipopmother · 18/05/2008 15:39

Yeah. I just don't get it. Sorry.

Wezzle · 18/05/2008 15:44

I really like it but because I live fairly near the place
it would put me off using it

Journey · 18/05/2008 15:49

Sounds like it should be a boy's name. Rhymes with knife!

Thecheekofsome · 18/05/2008 15:52

I think it rhymes with knives without the s

Wezzle · 18/05/2008 15:52

No it doesn't

HonoriaGlossop · 18/05/2008 16:01

Lovely name

Really lovely

MargaretMountford · 18/05/2008 16:10

it's pronounced Blyyythe - not like knife

CarGirl · 18/05/2008 16:24

Have you ever been to Blythe in Northumberland? I'm not sure I'd want to name my dd the same as that town, hope your surname isn't colliery

Wezzle · 18/05/2008 16:33

The place name is 'Blyth' actually....no 'e'
