My grandmother's name is Mildred - sounds too depressing. And Agnes sounds like an old lady. I'd prefer Inez or Esther. [ Reply | More ]

I like Inez. Esther is too Agnes, Agatha, old British woman sounding. [ Reply | More ]

NOt a big fan, but it may be because my Aunt Beatrice was an evil mean woman. So I had a preconcieved notion on the name. [ Reply | More ]

Yeah you may have something there. My crazy NA and AA cousin named her kid Georgie, not Georgia Georgie is her legal name. I can see her now 40 and all tatoo'd witha cigarette and whiskey in a bar. [ Reply | More ]

I like traditional names, but not those ugh! Robert is fine, but Percy reminds me those annoying Thomas trains, and the rest are just too old for a child, imo. [ Reply | More ]

Huh? If you look at the social security list of most popular names for the last 100 years, the boys names don't vary that much but they are not those names at all. Then the girls names change with the times. Helen, Mary... those were big; then Barbara;... now Eva, Sophie, Emma... [ Reply | More ]
