Re: Edith (just saw my first baby one)
Great intel, Llewella. While I love Edith too, I'm not surprised it hasn't caught on as well as other nostalgic names like Violet and Josephine. There's a heaviness to Edith that won't wear well with the general public, despite the super-cute nn of Edie. More's the pity.But your sighting gives one hope. :-)Edith Cyneburga is outstanding. Edith Olwen is darling. All of your combinaitons are nice, but I have a soft spot for Edith Fenella -- it's so unexpected. (As if Edith Cyneburga is????)My stock combination is Edith Wren. She's frugal. :-*

I guess. I don't think -ith is a heavy sound though, but I suppose some do. That's their problem with Agatha too, but I don't think that sounds harsh either.Anyway, Edith Wren is quite sweet. I can see her being very nit-picky with her various backyard gardens.

To me it's more the Ed- part that feels heavy, with slight overtones of Edward. Personally I dig the heaviness of it. It's just not the majority opinion, sadly. I wonder how Enid would do if she got the chance. . . . Agatha -- love!
