I like the name and it's not popular at all here in Australia. I don't actually think I've ever met a Martha either.

It's not popular, but I don't consider it dated. I think it's beautiful and spunky and definitely due for some popularity. :)

I like it increasingly, and find it fresh in a subtle way. It was also the name of one of my great-grandmothers.

It's not popular. I'd say it's still slightly dated, but not so much that I wouldn't use it. I think it's sweet.

i like Martha. a refreshing alternative to Emma, Sophia, Isabella, etc...

I love this name. I would use it, too, because there aren't any little Marthas around here. The only one I know is in her late 60s. I love the nn Marti :)

My moms name

This is my moms name, she's 64 and doesnt really care for it.

I love Martha! It's so sturdy, calm, and pretty in a sensible way.

I know Martha is hot in the UK, but in the US (where I am) it's fairly unpopular and possibly too closely tied to Martha Stewart. With names like Olive and Jasper on the rise, though, I think Martha will make a modest comeback here without ever becoming too popular.

I don't know many (or ANY) young Marthas. I never warmed to the name, myself. It sounds so gray and dowdy.

I think it might be more popular if not for Martha Stewart. Otherwise it would have the kind of rediscovered old-school shine that other names of its kind have.

Martha is making a come back (at least here in the UK). I've only ever met one she'd be 4 now. It totally works on a little girl

I really love Martha.
I think some people consider it an old-lady name, but the only Martha I know is about 35, so I don't really find it dated. It's not super popular but it's in the top 100 in the UK.
