Favourite traditional names for girls?

[juliejordan.livejournal.com]

I'm probably quite old fashioned when it comes to the kind of names I like. I dislike things that are too out there...anyway, here are my favourite traditional names for girls: (in no real order)

- Audrey
- Bethany (nn Beth)
- Catherine (nn Cathy)
- Charlotte (nn Lottie)
- Christine
- Elizabeth
- Emily
- Helen
- Jane
- Mary
- Margaret (nn Meg)
- Nancy
- Rebecca

I really like these names and luckily most of them could still be used today without the kid getting any grief over it. Anyone else like older names?

I'm Catherine nn Cathy and I love it. It's so classy and it reminds me of Wuthering Heights.

I love old names, too. If I had two daughters they'd be Anne and Elizabeth, and if I had a third she'd be Jane. I love Margaret and I've recently started like Eloise.
