What was the response?
Just did it for mine and it was all quite positive! Now to search ds and dp's...........
Just a bit of fun while ds is amusing himself in the jumperoo!

The response was not good. I was named after a song from the seventies.

Mine is Valerie so I doubt that will turn up any time soon!

lynniep · 18/06/2009 18:17

nope - although apparently my name is the most 'miserable in Britain' www.dailyexpress.co.uk/posts/view/91618 so I dont need to hear about how rubbish the name is too

I like the name Valerie, I like Bridge-chic names though! Belinda, Vivien, Marianne Susan, Valerie, Margot.. My mum has friends called this. Weird, but I think they are what would stand out now.

My name never gets any good comments.

EdwardBitMe · 18/06/2009 18:30

All very positve for mine.
It's a classic apparently, not unusual but not over-used.

SlartyBartFast · 18/06/2009 18:31

mine is so well liked
but it wasnt when i was a child
fashions change.

JoyS · 18/06/2009 19:08

Mine is pretty popular middle name.

sockmonster · 18/06/2009 19:13

My name, and yes I have looked it up a little too much, is a feminised version of a male name starting with s, and everyone says it is either dull, dull, too common or too 70s/80s.

sockmonster · 18/06/2009 19:18

lynniep having just clicked on your link it seems I should turn that into a it is a happy name....

er... yeah

braveandcrazy · 18/06/2009 19:19

I just did this and it was hysterical - thanks very much for the tip!

CurryMaid · 18/06/2009 19:20

Mine is twee, apparently.

BikeRunSki · 06/07/2009 21:45

Mine comes up quite often. It seems to be classic, beautiful and boring. It was not at all common when I was a child, but it does seem that about 1 in 10 little girls has it now.

SlartyBartFast · 06/07/2009 21:49

same here
lovely, gorgeous, classy, to name a few

SlartyBartFast · 06/07/2009 21:49

oh poo, why is this on here again, moreover why am i commenting again

MamaLazarou · 07/07/2009 07:49

Most people seem to like my name. It was the most popular girls' name a few years back. I like it very much, although the common nickname (which I don't use) is ugly, IMO.

Mine is a dated Scottish name that is due for revival apparently
