My daughter name is Beatrise

I’d love for all the old fashioned names to come back ❤️

So likely chance no one will be called that in her class and think that makes it unique ☺️

My great grandma was Doris and my grandma was Lorna-Evelyn. I love the older names. Go for it!

aw, Gladys was also my grandmother's name! vintage names are so popular atm, and although Gladys is one that doesn't seem to have caught on, it fits that trend - it's unusual, but not "outdated" in the sense that it is more of an old-fashioned name, but so are names like Edith, Hazel, Beatrice, Ada etc which are currently very popular! Gladys is lovely - so many cute nickname options and such a beautiful tribute to your granny! 💕

Vintage names are super trendy right know I think Gladys works well

@Madelina ♡ I know my granny would of loved this child,just unfortunate that she didn’t get to met but it’s now trying to convince the partner of it

aw, i really hope your partner will be convinced! it will give your little girl such a lovely connection to your granny. 💕

Don't know where you are in the world but in the UK there are lots of girls with granny names, Florence, violet, Edith, Charlotte etc all making a resurgence

My ex boss (headteacher) was called Gladys. She was about 5, 2”, tiny and terrifying. She was also one of the most honest and compassionate women I’ve ever met. I think it’s a highly underrated name!

@Charley im in Northern Ireland

I know of a little girl who is 4/5 called Gladys. X

I would love to meet a little Gladys! It’s so spunky and fresh. The nickname Gigi is cute too

Gonna try mention it to my partner tonight see how he takes it, wish me Luck

Gladys is due a comeback! With the popularity of Maeve and Mabel and Winnifred and so on I think Gladys is right on trend but staying more rare which is perfect

@Annie if we have a girl… she’s gonna be called Gladys ❤️💕

Aww lovely news glad the conversation went well ☺️

He just wants some form of Joseph in either name, so it’s Gladys Josephine which I think is lovely 💕

That is lovely 😍 I do like that

Aww so happy to hear this update!

Its actually a popular hispanic name but yes Ive mostly heard it from aunts and grandparents. Its still beautiful! Bring it back momma!
