What one is least pretentious?

[prayingforababy]

OH loves Ophelia (the only name he has ever come up with and likes)

I like Tabitha and Portia but getting worried that the former sounds like a cat due to unhelpful friends. I don't want pretentious names but I can't help what I like.

So do I please myself or please the masses and opt for a less posh name. What one would you choose?

Ophelia x

Portia is pretentious and piggy- go for it!

Why not Ophelie?

It is close to Ophelia but, to my knowledge, doesn't have any tragic connections.

Portia (although spelt differently) is a chav name.
Tabitha is one of my cats names
so of the three i would say Ophelia
I know only one Ophelia so not a common name (last thing you want when she starts school),and its very pretty.

Yes - my friend's little girl is called Ophelie - it's french, as she is, and she is gorgeous. It really suits her.

Portia's lovely.

Ophelia will most likely be the name of dd when she arrives in October. Love it pretentious or not!

I love the name Ophelia, however I worked with an Ophelia years ago as a waitress, all the chefs used to call her Ophelia Tits which put me off (I considered it for dd).

Portia - the whole 'did you name her after a car' thing from idiots.

Tabitha I do like very much.

What about:

Seraphina
Octavia
Perdita
Imogen
Aurelia

I love them all actually!

There is a very famous drag act in Newcastle called Ophelia Balls which would make me think twice - but if you don't live anywhere near here nobody would know!

I think Tabitha is really nice, as is Portia but I agree with GetOrf bout the whole car thing.
