Help[Opinions] Re: Gertrude & Maud
in reply to a message by ari.
a) Gertrude Rosalind & Maud Etheldreda
b) Amanda Gertrude & Lilian Maud
c) Gertrude. It has always been a GP of mine. No strong feelings about Maud.
d) Maude looks more complete and elegant IMO.
e) Trudy. Gertie sounds like a modern nickname that feels a bit forced. Trudy comes more natural.
f) I'd assume Gertrude was older because it's more common (or more heard of) than Maud, and I tend to expect the older sibling to have the more common name (parents tend to be more liberal / wild with younger kids' names).
