Hester is totally retro-chic, though a little more Puritan than say,
Esther, which definitely has flapper vibe for me.
Bridget is actually very modern for me. I know it's not modern at all, but I think of it as being really common anyhere from the 1970's and up. Like if I met a little
Bridget today, I wouldn't blink an eye.
Brigitte is a bit more glam, more golden-age movie star.
I'd pair them up like this to jazz em up:
Hester StellaBridget RubyHester ClaudetteBridget ZeldaHester DaisyBridget RoxieHester BillieBridget AlmaHester Blanche Bridget MaeHester MinnieBridget RosaHester MaxineBridget HattieHester LizaBridget LottieHester LolaBridget Winifred
Sorry for all the nicknames, but for me the 20's were all about snappy, short, informal names.
