Sheila, Lorraine or Glinda?

[plinkyplonk123]

I know these names are unconventional but I was thinking they might be nice. I was originally going to go for Sheila or Lorraine (Lorrie for short) but after watching Wicked I’m thinking maybe Glinda would be fun!

Oh please don't use Glinda. You could go with Glenda, which was popular in the same era as Lorraine and Sheila. I picture them all at the church basement organizing a charity tea. So bringing back grandma names.

I know a Lorraine who goes by Rainy which is lovely.
That's the nicest thing I can think of to say. I'm sorry op. I am usually really kind and laid back with baby names but if this is real please don't do it.

Gerlinde? I have never met a Lorraine that I liked (and I was at school with several, and worked with others. I wonder why the name is always Lorraine, why not Alsace for a bit of balance?). Sheila… my Mum had several really drippy friends called Sheila, all of whom were in miserable marriages but couldn’t leave because respectable women didn’t.

Why stop there? What about Anette or Wendy?
Don't do that to a child.

I quite like Wendy. My teenage dts have a friend Wendy and it really suits her.

Oh come on they really aren't better.
Some of the old ladies names are hideous.
I'd rather be Lorraine than Ethel

Guys I know they’re unconventional but some of these comments are really mean. #Bekind

Same. Although I'd rather shit in my hands and clap than be Lorraine.

But spelt Shelagh as Gaelic surely

Or Hilda. I don't see that having a revival any time soon.

Agree and also appreciate the delicate wording

It's GA-linda

All horrible. I know this is a tiny snapshot but every Sheila I’ve known has been awful.

Winifred, Ethel and Rapunzel?

Doris, Brenda and Cinderella?

Why don't you like your made up baby?

😂
2 of my sheep are called Shelia and Lorraine!
They are a right bunch - Eileen, Doreen, Mauren, Nora, Mildred, Glo(ria) Dororthy (Dot), Pearl, Margaret (Maggie), Elizabeth (Lizzy), Doris, Edna, Peggy..... they are GORGEOUS

All child abuse.

They are all awful….like really awful

Yeah, sure.

I thought it was for a robot vacuum when I read the title, I clicked on to say mine is called Sheila🤣

Sorry OP, probably not the feedback you were hoping for on here tonight 🤦‍♀️

I hope you've already set up the therapy fund.

It mean…just the truth….they are truly BAD names….we are doing you a favour

I quite like them all. Ignore the old people. Sheila is my favoured

If you ask for people's opinions, you are going to get people's opinions.

Too early.
