[Opinions] Maude
I met a Maude not long ago who (surprisingly, to me) was in her late teens or early twenties. I've always liked Maude, but I think this was the first time I met one.
What do you think of Maude? Would you be surprised to met a youngish one?
Also, what would you use as a middle name with it, if you had to?
...I feel like I'd go with a combo like Maude Tiffany, right now. Or...
Maude Juniper
Maude Willow
Maude Azalea
Maude Camila
Maude Jamila

Maude Crystal
Maude Cassiopeia
Maude Renata
Maude Leonora
Maude Iris
Maude Hera

Maude Tova
Maude Niobe

I LOVE Maude (but I prefer Maud).
It’s not popular here and never was so I’d be surprised to meet a Maud(e) no matter what age. I did once teach a lovely little girl called Amalia Maud and I really love that combo.

Maude is a cute name, without being too cutesy. Maude Tiffany is actually astonishingly medieval (even more, Maud Tiffany), even though it seems kind of 70s on the surface.
When I saw this post, the combo Maude Amaryllis / Maud Amaryllis immediately popped into my head.

Dated and ugly. I can only imagine a frumpy old grandma who wears the same old-fashioned dress every day and refuses to use her cane to walk, even if she needs it.
I honestly prefer Mathilde.

I do like Maude! But I haven't always. I probably would be surprised to meet a Maude in her teens or twenties. I think the name is making something of a comeback. But I'd expect that to be reflected in younger children. I'd use a longish middle name.

I like it. I wonder if it mightn’t make a comeback?
I hate it less now than I used to. I can see that it's stylish in an austere, Brooklyn, monochromatic kind of way. It sounds like a moan, though. It's mournful. At the same time, it's kind of nasal and imagining it being said in a New Jersey or NY or Philly accent, well, it's not pretty.
There was a character in a book I read a long time ago with the double name Maude Caroline. I remember thinking that as far as double names go, this one wasn't so bad. It certainly isn't cutesy like Lily Grace or something.

That's a good description of it.
