Purdie is a good name for a girl, not so good for a boy. It sounds far more feminine than masculine. It just tries to show how princessy you are. Purdie is rather a silly name, but it’s best as a girl's name, not suitable for a boy at all! I kinda like names with these kinds of jokes and puns and besides, my children are “Purdie” so it’s kind of a beautiful name now that I think about it.

This is my name as on my birth certificate.. but in school I was taught to spell it as Purdey. No family members have my name. It is unusual but at 39 I am used to it. I believe my parents found it on a TV programme called the Avengers. In which Joanna Lumley played Purdey.
