I dont Albert and Winifred is a name that Im indifferent too. Dont love it but dont completely hate it. It could be refreshing to see a little Winifred nn Winnie!

I love both Albert and Winifred (especially the latter).

I love Albert because it is my grandfather's name. I hate Winifred, because I think it is simply ugly.

I like each of them, though I cannot imagine Albert on a little boy. And with me disliking both Al and Bert as nn, I'd never use it.I prefer Alvin, Allen, Aaron and Arvin. Winifred is very nice though, and I can picture it on young and old. A dark blond, fair-skinned, curly haired girl with brown eyes is what I picture.

I think they have an old-fashioned charm to them. Albert is a kind, strong name. Winifred is quite free-spirited (and how adorable is Winnie?). I think they'd make a great sibset, actually.

I like those. They're very old. There need to be more of them in the world.
If Winifred ever needed a nickname I'd call her Fred, Freddie, or Freda.

They are both very nice, especially together They are more genteel than old-fashioned, sort of like a happy, well-dressed couple having a picnic on a hillside.

I love them both but I don't know if I would have the guts to use them here in the U.S.! They are lovely, underused names though!

Albert is okay, but I prefer the similar Alfred.I love Winifred. It's in my top ten for girls.

Can't you just see them? Little dark-haired kids, with non-trendy clothes. No "I'm a Princess" in sparkles for Win.

Make them now!!I hate those little "I'm a Princess" shirts with glitter. For both children and dogs. I love vintage-y sweaters and corduroys on little kids, they are adorable simply because they don't vomit rainbows and ponies at you.

Lovely. Old-fashioned, but in a good way. Winifred is both cute and classy, and Albert is my grandfather's name and I've always liked it.
