Waaaaaaaaaaaah, 2 votes of Tracey/y

Not quite, but not far off- real name is very obvious from the almalgamation thread (I am not the Ian part )

On an Irish web-site I post on, my name has never been liked if suggested. But, here on MN it seems to be almost universally liked. You MN ladies have obviously got excellent taste.

ludog Roisin

screamingabdab · 24/08/2009 23:17

ludog · 24/08/2009 23:19

Wrong,wrong!! It's not an Irish name.

millenniumfalcon · 24/08/2009 23:20

mine are yawn-inducingly common nowadays, although somewhat exotic/outlandish/cruel when i was a kid. i never turn around when i hear my name in supermarkets any more

AvadaKedavra · 24/08/2009 23:21

No not Beatrice, I wish it was though it's beautiful doesn't suit me then

NotanOtter · 24/08/2009 23:27

Clary · 24/08/2009 23:31

Mine never comes up but then I don't like it much.

mamalazarou must be Elizabeth, everyone has liked that of laet (even me )

floaty · 24/08/2009 23:39

mine doesn't appear very often,although I think it has had a bit of a revival,when I was at school though in the 70s and early eighties there were quite alot of us.

NotanOtter · 24/08/2009 23:46

my namesakes ride...horses!

screamingabdab · 25/08/2009 06:28

NotanOtter

So your name is Jockey

Aaaaahhhh...... Jackie ??

MamaLazarou · 25/08/2009 07:20

No, I am not Elizabeth or Katherine, although they are both lovely names!

floaty · 25/08/2009 11:26

What happened to Susans there used to be loads now you never hear it.Actually just done a search and mine has been suggested but almost always so that it can be shortened which is a pity,even though I shorten mine!

sausagetits · 25/08/2009 11:30

We should definitely have a revival for Susans

AstronomyDomine · 25/08/2009 11:34

I've never seen my name mentioned on here. It's nothing special at all, completely middle of the road. Pretty boring actually.

lljkk · 25/08/2009 11:37

My name was very popular in the 1960s but is utterly and totally out of fashion now.

PuppyLoves · 25/08/2009 14:37

Notanotter, well done Not telling which one of the three though

Fimbo · 25/08/2009 14:40

I think mine may have cropped up once.

NotanOtter · 25/08/2009 20:17

puppylove i will do some psychic vibing and you can tell me that way!
