Re: Hattie, Lucy and Mabel
in reply to a message by Mareasi
Hattie -- It's a really cute nn yet I don't like it enough as a stand alone while I intensely dislike Harriet. It's the same problem I have with Hallie which I adore (not enough as a fn for me but I hate the full name). Hattie May is sweet but too simple and it lacks sophistication -- especially since Hattie is a nn. Now Hattie Matilda has some spunk! I do like the flow of that one.
Lucy -- I love Lucy! My fave Lucy combo is either Lucy Eleanor or Lucy Marigold so as you can see, I've given some thought to this name! Re: your combos, I like Lucy Margaret best.
Mabel is NMS, mainly because it has a really dated feel to it, imo. I also don't enjoy the sound although I understand why people would find it attractive. Mabel Catherine is really nice.
