Help[Opinions] Re: Mildred?
in reply to a message by SocioLogically
Ah yes, the first signs that Mildred is indeed revivable, though it will probably be another decade at least before young parents are really bold enough to use it!
I think Mildred is OK, but I really am hoping that the similar name Milbury or Milbrey, from the name of the original medieval St. Mildred's sister, can be revived. I like Milbrey much better than Mildred.

Another version of Mildred is Mildrith. It's closer to the Anglo-Saxon original, but I don't know if I see it taking off! :) I've never heard of Milbrey, but it's great. It does sound a lot more like the kind of name that could become popular in this day and age.
(BTW, did you that Mildred was an Anglo-Saxon male name?)
