Yeah, I know it's ugly, but I LOVE THIS NAME. Give me your best combo for it. :) "An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way." -Charles Bukowski

Gladys Emily was in my Top 10 for a while, not ironically and not even as a guilty pleasure. I think it's a sweet name that can come back from being "dusty." And it's a happy name, too - it even has the word "glad" right there!

I love it! An old boss of mine joked about opening a retro diner where all the waitress could choose a fake name to go with the theme. I always thought I'd pick Gladys because the "-adys" part resembled my own name is look and sound. I think it's really sweet.. I mean "glad" is right there up front :)Gladys Emily

I like it too! It's quirky and personably curmudgeonous. It's loud and courageously brash. Also it's a lovely purple and yellow colour for me.Gladys Olivia

Good for you for loving it. It would be so cool if it were to make a comeback. To me, it's funny to think about---certain names that are so universally disliked, yet at one point a great many people were seeing something appealing about them. Gladys pretty much zoomed out of nowhere right around 1900 and took the baby-naming world by storm. I had a great-aunt named Gladys, born in 1902, as I know I've mentioned before. Funny to think that she was given a name which was the 1902 equivalent of Olivia, Isabella, Charlotte today.Lots of talk about Irene lately, which puts me in mind of Gladys Irene.

Gladys Erin is inspired! I also really like Gladys Annabeth.
