[Opinions] Re: Matilda
in reply to a message by BBH
I don't mind Matilda, but it confuses me. Why is Matilda so hot but other musty old lady names are still considered ugly? Matilda is no more beautiful than Edith or Millicent. Where's the popularity surge for them!? I blame it all on Heath Ledger. I am cool with Matilda, but I am not a fan of the annoying Mattie as a nickname. Tilly is the only way to go in my mind. Sometimes I think a lot of these Matilda-lovers are Madison or Madeline-lovers in disguise tryin' to be tricksy. Oh yeah, we're not trend followers at all, we'll pick the underused and geeky Matilda, but please call her Maddi- uh Mattie. Anyways. I really like your Alice Matilda. It's very sweet. Agnes Matilda would be cute too - Aggie Matilda, aw. So Nan-errific. Here's some:Matilda Eugenie
Matilda Jean
Matilda Pearl
Matilda Maud
Matilda Lucy
Matilda Faye
Matilda Ruth
Matilda Scarlett
Matilda Poppy
Matilda Blanche
Matilda Constance
Matilda Nell
Matilda Clementine

I like:Matilda Lucy*
Matilda Ruth*Matilda Maud is too redundant for me. :)

Honestly, I think Matilda has a much, much older feel than Edith or Millicent (medieval as opposed to Victorian), neither of which delight me.
