Help[Opinions] Re: Mildred (etc.)
in reply to a message by clevelandkentevans
I like Mildred. I have only seen other people on this board say they liked Mildred, never anyone in real life. I understand why. Even though I like it, I don't think I would want it to be my name, so there you go.
I do see how it could have some appeal for upper middle class women in New York City, though. It would definitely make a statement. And i mean, if you'd asked the average person about Hazel twenty years ago, they could have easily put it in the same category as Mildred. And look at Hazel now!
I like Millicent too. Idk about Milbrey, without the historical context you provided I'd assume it was made up and that her sister would probably be named Raelynn or Tenley or something. So it doesn't fit the style of Mildred at all.
I'd think Camilla or Amelia would be the most palatable full names for Millie right now.
I'm 19 and from the United States though.
