[Opinions] Bonnie
All of a sudden I can't get the name Bonnie out of my head. I think it's because of that Bonnie Hunt. I saw an interview with her recently and she was really very funny and vivacious, characteristics I now seem to have attached to the name. Anyway, what do you think of the name Bonnie?

I've always liked Bonnie, although it currently sounds dated. I think of Rhett & Scarlett's daughter, Bonnie Blue Butler. Bonnie seems very fitting for a child of Scottish descent.

I've always really liked the name for some reason, I'm not exactly sure why! The name has always made me think of Bonnie Hunt too, who I also quite like.

I really like it, probably because I think of it as a southern name. Much like Carolyn or Savannah.

I've known two Bonnies, in neither case was it the girl's real name. One girl in particular tried hard to overcome it and have people use her real name, which was Margaret.

It has been growing on me lately too. I saw it on DOG the Bounty Hunter. I think its really cute.

I think it is a sweet name.I think it is a name in the same style as Jolie, both Bonnie and Jolie mean "pretty". But Bonnie sounds more old-fashioned than Jolie."You sought a flower and found a fruit. You sought a spring and found a sea. You sought a woman and found a soul. You are disappointed."

Recently I have met 2 Bonnies both of whom are very sweet. It is also the name of a good friend's mother. I like it a lot but don't know if I'd use it. I also recently met a Connie- how do you like Connie?
