Ha! Bear, I had a feeling I could count on you! ;-)
You are definitely not the only Hester lover - I'm totally smitten with her, I really am. I like Hazel, too, but Hester - my heart belongs to Hester. For her sassy attitude and her energy ;-)
And what a great list!
I love Hester Sibly, Hester Bryony, Hester Isobel (this is so dramatic), Hester Glynis (awesome!), Hester Freya, Hester Theda.
I agree with you, Bridget is pretty resistant, isn't she. Very hard to flapper-ize.
Nonetheless, Bridget Nell is just great! And so are Bridget Talulla (the first time I can see this name's charms, by the way), Bridget Clare and Bridget Lucy.
By the way, what do you think of Gertrude?

Gertrude
Funny. I was just thinking about Gertrude last night. On the drive home, my dh mentioned his Aunt Gertrude. I said how cute the name was and how I couldn't decide if Gertie, Trudy, Tru / True or Ru / Rue made a better nn.
I met a 10 year old Gertie (Gertrude) once. Too cute.
When said in the original German, Gertrude is so beautiful. With an English / American accent it's still nice, but more quirky than beautiful.
I'm so glad you liked a combo or two. And I'm tickled that you did this thread. :-)
