Re: Hester and Bridget
"[Bridget] would be scolding the flappers. Making her one feels kind of naughty. :P"LOL! I literally laughed out loud when I read this ;-)I used to get a domestic, well-behaved, good-girl feeling of Bridget - and then along came Bridget Jones and her diary. (And I'm blushing right now ;-) )
I agree with Chloe and Tiggs - Hester Goldie is the bee's knees!
I also really like Hester Francine and Bridget Gladys. (Oh, yes, Gladys, another name no-one seems to like...)

GladysStop right there, Missy. Gladys "Midnight Train to Georgia" Knight need apologize to no one. No one! Don't you dare say anything about my beloved Gladys. Why don't you and I just go to some island somewhere and name things? All by ourselves. The Hester tree by the Gladys spring. Shshshs. Don't tell anyone. Gladys has "glad" right in the name. How can anyone not love it? I'm always torn between Gladys and Glynis. They are both so happy and innocent sounding.

YEAH! Let's do that! Start packing, Bear!
You and me - and maybe those parents who named their daughter Gladys Chloe. Did I tell you that I saw a BA for a tiny little Gladys Chloe last year?
What do we think about Beryl?
(I love it, I seriously do)

You're just toying with me now. I know you. Gladys Chloe indeed. I would have *felt* it if one were born on the planet somewhere. Unless there were sunspots.Beryl? Beryl? Next you'll be telling me you like Zelda. Pfphphfft. No. One. On. The. Earth. Loves. All. These. Names. But. Me. Get it? It's my one pathetic claim to individualism. (Leda.) Hey, now! (Enid.) Stop it!

I can PROVE it! Look, I even did a thread on it: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/baby/3881527(There were some very interesting names in there. How about Leopold Nimrod Hubertus for example?)Hihihihi, I adore Leda and Leta. My stock combo is Leta Regine.
And Enid? She has been on my list for ages now.
Beryl... you'll have to share her with me and a very dear friend of mine. She was the one who turned me into a Beryl lover in the first place. :-)

I'm glad you like some. :)I've never seen(/read?) Bridget Jones's Diary, so don't have that problem. But I could picture a Bridget like that in a more modern context.I don't know if I like Gladys, but if I think of gladiolus flowers then it's very springy and nice and bright yellow. That helps it out!
