Bridget is the one name my parents considered giving me, besides Margaret. I like my name but I would’ve rather been Bridget. I think it’s a great name, strong, ugly but charming in its ugliness. It’s not dated exactly... I’d expect a Bridget to be in her erbties or thirties but wouldn’t be shocked if she was older or younger.

I don’t have any strong associations attached to it. My first thought would be high school athlete, a soccer player maybe. One of those girls that wore Nike shorts every day and had their hair in a topknot. But I think Bridget could fit a lot of different women.
