How do the Brits pronounce Anthony?

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

They don't pronounce the 'th', so just like 'Antony'.

I used to teach swimming lessons, and I once had a little girl in one of my classes whose name was Davina. I had never heard it before either, and it really stuck with me.

I like:

Alice
*Anne
Augusta
Beatrice
Caroline
Catherine (I like the nickname Cady)
Cecilia
Cecily
Charlotte (I LOVE the nickname Lottie)
Davina
*Eleanor (although I prefer the spelling Elinor)
*Elizabeth (with the nickname Lizzie, of course!)
*Frances (I think Fanny is cute. But wouldn't use it in England, obviously! haha)
Helen (I have a good friend with this name, and I've always liked it)
Isabel (I think the nickname Izzy is sooo cute)
Jane
Lucy
Margaret (I like the nickname Maggie)
Mary
Matilda (I think the nickname Tilly would be really cute)
Olivia (although it's way too popular now for me to even consider using it)
Philippa (I think the nickname Pippa is adorable)

Andrew (I like the nickname Drew)
*Arthur (Arthurian legend...yeah!)
Duncan
Edgar
*Edmund (I think Eddie is cute)
Edward (same)
Geoffrey (I greatly prefer this spelling to Jeffrey)
Gilbert (I love it for the Anne of Green Gables associations)
James
*Jasper
Philip
Richard
*Robert
Simon
*Thomas (I like Tom a lot)
*William (with the nickname Liam)
