Help[Opinions] Re: Deborah
in reply to a message by Lily8
I love this traditional Biblical name. Deborah Kerr lent it a touch of class but I think Debbie Reynolds helped to popularise it.
The Biblical Deborah was a strong and clever woman - a good role model for any girl. I didn't realise it was so despised until I suggested it some time ago as a mn for Elizabeth - not many people liked that choice.

I hate this name with a passion because of a bad association, so bad that it's making me feel a little nauseated just reading this thread. But I think that the reason most as you said despise it, is simply that it's dated and tied to the forties and fifties. If it had never been popular then, I'm sure it would be much more popular now.
