Re: Pearl
in reply to a message by Jae
I LOVE underused old-fashioned names. Some people think some of the names I love are too old, but I love them. :) Pearl is one of them, but it's also the favorite of a good friend of mine. So I'd probably only use it if she decided she definitely wasn't going to, and even then I'd probably use it as a mn (just because there are so many other names that I just love more). I think it's a great alternative to Rose or Grace.
BTW, I don't know any young Pearls, but my friend got hooked on the name after seeing a baby on the cover of a magazine a few years back. The baby was adorable and her name was Pearl. :)
