Don't care for it at all, it seems very old-ladyish and prissy. And the nn Addie makes me think not only of an old lady, but a loud, bossy and domineering one at that.

As a girl's name, it's alright, I prefer Adelaide. It's kind of pretty though.

Post under ONE name ONLY please, BoxOfRain / GreenRiver

It is STRICTLY AGAINST THE RULES to post under more than one name. This means that you must use the same name in the 'Name' box every time you post. Please choose ONE of these two names and stick to it from now on.

Please read the rules (see the Help/Rules/FAQ link at the top of the board) before making any more posts on this site.

My grandfather dated a woman named Adeline and she was an Italian schoolteacher ... we didn't hit it off too well ... so I am not a fan of the name for a child. But I think it's a nice enough name, strong but unassuming like Caroline is. I dislike nickname Addie very much.

Adeline is adorable, but only when it's pronounced AA-deh-line, not AA-deh-leen.

I prefer Adele. :)

I think it's pretty. It makes me think of the book Chinese Cinderella.

I find it rather pretty, but I prefer Adelaide.
