Honestly? I'd expect her to be pleasant overall... just a little impatient. :-)

Patience is one of the only virtue names I actually like, though.

I'd be surprised I actually met someone with the name! I like it, but only for a mn.

I would appreciate her name because it's classic and rare.

I like the name! I would think of someone who is probably graceful and educated.

I'd think it was cool. I don't think it's a super surprising name these days, but definitely noteworthy. Maybe I'd feel slightly bad for her because I'm pretty sure she'd get lame jokes thrown at her almost constantly.

I'd consider it as a middle name myself, though I do like the idea of Patie as a nn.

I did meet a woman named Patience. She was a massively huge African-American woman who set out to, and succeeded in, doing my family a massive injustice. I thought, among many other things, of course, "I used to like that name but now I'm always going to hate it."

I'd think that her parents had poor taste and feel sorry for her.
I wouldn't want Patience as my name, no matter if I actually had patience or not.

I'd hope for her sake that she was known as Patty, though I don't like it at all. It'd still be much better than Patience! What a life sentence.

Not that bad of a name, I actually love lots of Purtian style virtue names! I imagine Pattie or Penny as easy nicknames!
