[Opinions] Re: Frances?
in reply to a message by Sarah
I love Frances, one of my top favorites. I love the nickname Francie, like the main character little girl from "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn". Frannie is ok too, but I love the sweetness and the frilliness of Francie. I prefer it as a first name, though it's great as a middle name. I know two people named Frances. A five year old and a 30 year old. The one my age goes by Frances and sometimes France. The 5 year old is Frances Isabelle and goes by Francie and Francie-Bell.
Frances Eleanor Delilah is adorable.

I love "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" and I also have an Aunt Francie on my father's side. Then on my mother's side my great grandmother was Frances and my mother has three cousins named for her! I *want* to like the name because it is so old-fashioned, but it's not one of my favorites.I've been hearing of Francesca a lot lately.
