Grace
So I recently hears of two people having baby girls named Grace (one is a YouTuber, the other someone I know personally). In the case of the person I know, at least, there’s a religious component because they actually mentioned it being because of the “grace of God.”
Thoughts? I used to find Grace super boring, now I kind of like it though it’s not a favorite or anything.
“And I wish there was a treaty we could sign
I do not care who takes this bloody hill
I'm angry and I'm tired all the time
I wish there was a treaty,
I wish there was a treaty
Between your love and mine”
Leonard Cohen

It's a filler middle name (although that's understandable, to be honest, as it sounds good with so many first names). As a first name I think Grace is beautiful - classic and sophisticated and elegant without being too long or frilly or pretentious. It has a simplistic charm that is (excuse the pun) graceful. It ages well, and fits many personalities. Plus the nickname Gracie is adorable. I really do love this name, but it's never been in my top choices because it's too short. Perfect for anyone who likes short names that fit on forms though!

I find it fine. I had the sweetest co worker naned Grace. She was so pleasant. My orchestra teacher named her daughter Grace after a piece of music, and my pre k teacher named her daughter Gracie. Grace reminds me of a gentle mother. It's also pretty youthful and nice to hear as a first name than middle. I wouldn't use it though.
Haha, thanks, it kind of reflects a certain mood I’m in... love Mr. Cohen anyway.
