babynamesWhat are your favorite "old lady names"? Names that make people cringe and say "ew, that sounds like an old lady's name!!1!!1!" I'm not talking about Rose, Grace, Claire, Emma, Sophia, etc. Those clearly aren't considered "old lady names" anymore.
I hate when people comment and say a name sounds like an old lady's name... why is that such a bad thing?! Odds are whatever that name is, it has a lot more history than some stupid flimsy name like Kayley or Caiden.
I love the name Hazel and after re-reading Jane Eyre, I'm loving the name Jane. I like Frances, Josephine, and Helena a ton, too. I guess those are my top favorites.
