I love old fashioned names. Wish more of them were loved again. If you ever have a chance to walk through old cemetery.. there are so many beautiful and forgotten names. |

Yeah, I'd love to do that as I'm the last person in my family with the original surname who might have kids but my surname would be an odd middle name.
I'd use Clara as a first name though, that was what both of my great grandmas on my mum's side were called |

I like it as it's a bit uncommon but not so much that's it's weird. My name is quite uncommon too. |

Oooh that's pretty, how is it pronounced phonetically?
I'd like to use my mum's first name is a middle name but she hates her name but there's other variations of it. |

Joan has gone out of fashion here too but most keep it in families by using the variants of Hannah, Joanne or Siobhan. |

"Wilberforce & Horace  "
There was a young boy in the supermarket called Horatio, poor bastard.
His mum was shouting his name at him to come back and he just looked at her with contempt. |
