[Opinions] Re: Gracie
in reply to a message by Bear
Awww, George and Gracie were probably my favourite radio and television couple. I love Jack Benny, but I REALLY don't care for Mary Livingstone (I'm trying to keep it civil, LOL).
Normally, I would agree with you that I'd prefer Gracie as a nickname, but lately I've been watching too much Burns and Allen on YouTube and Gracie has grown on me even more.
My favourites from your list are:
Gracie Eleanor- very nice. Very, very nice.
Gracie Matilda- too cute! My favourite! I see a precocious, bubbly little girl full of sunshine and a happy, confident woman.
Gracie Evelyn- I believe one of Miss Allen's (three) middle names was Evelyn. I *think* her name was Grace Ethel Rosalie Evelyn. I believe I'm correct on the names, just not the order in which they go.
Gracie Clementine- adorable.
Gracie Rosalind- I just finished watching The Women again, which aired for the Joan Crawford birthday marathon on TCM, and Rosalind Russell was fan-freaking-tastic and a hoot. I decided that Rosalind was going on my list, so how wonderful that you pair it with Gracie. :)
Gracie Helen / Ellen- I really like Gracie Helen, though today, I'm loving Gracie Ellen just a tad bit more.
Thank you for all the lovely suggestions!
