A name like Linda but “younger”

[DoYaKnowTheFiveLamps]

I love the name Linda but it’s very 70s to me and makes me think of a 50-something woman rather than someone young

'Young Linda'

Anyone remember Yootha Joyce? That was an unusual name and a half.

Linnet.

Lucinda, nn Lindy.

Lydia or Lucinda. Both surprising on a young child but suit an older child. Whereas if you were a Linda you’d probably have to wait til middle age to suit your name. Went to school with a Linda, she’s now 35 and still not there yet!

Lydia is gorgeous

Not quite the same sound at all but what about Laura?
Lara?
Lena?
Lisa?

Louisa

I Agree. I went to school in the sixties with loads of Linda's. It definitely had gone out of fashion by the 70's.

The two Lindas I know are in their 60s.

Lydia or Lindsay

Melinda

Me too.
The Lindas I know are both Swedish , where it is a classic name. So I know one in her mid eighties and one in her late thirties.

I know two in their 60s and one in her 40s.

Lena, Lilia, Lola, India, Linnea

guessing everyone suggesting Belinda has never listened to the My Dad wrote a p*ton podcast! 😂

All the Linda's I know are 90s babies! It's a nice name, I think you should go for it.

Love the name Lena, it was on my list this time but I had a boy. I also don't mind Lucinda.

I don't think you should go Rosalind, I know a few Rosalind, Roslin, Rosalin, Rosalie, Rosaleen.. people always get their names wrong unfortunately no matter how many times they are corrected.

Delilah?
Laila
