Re: Edith
in reply to a message by DLB
I'm in favor. I don't see it as old-ladyish anymore. If it's dated, it's just in the sense that I picture it on a young character in fiction about the 1920s.I proposed it as a name for our daughter, back in 2006. My husband said it'd be a "statement" and I guess he meant he thought it was unfashionable. I'd be happy if Edith was her name today, though.I wonder if one reason people don't go for it is because it's pretty blatantly Germanic, like Mildred.- mirfak
