Comments for the name Bernadette

Bernadette means "Strong & Brave".

Bernadette Devlin was the youngest woman ever to be elected at the British Parlament. She was 21 at the moment of being elected in 1968.

This name sounds very determined and heroic, while being very pretty at the same time. I love it!

The name of a song by the Four Tops, about a woman named Bernadette, who the singer is in love with.

I love this name Bernadette but I think it's old fashioned but it will definitely be my first daughter's middle name.

Bernadette is the main character in the book "Cheating Lessons".

The royal family of Sweden's surname is "Bernadotte".

Famous bearer is actress Bernadette Peters.

I like this name and Saint Bernadette is one of my favorite saints. I will very likely use this for a middle name.

The name is a little dated, but still pretty good.

This name is also used in English, pronounced BERN-ə-det.

For some reason the name Bernadette screams "lady with a mustache" to me. It sounds very harsh and masculine to me.

My uncle named his daughter Bernadette and she's 31 years-old now. I love the name, it totally fits my cousin. When I say she's my cousin, 'Bernadette', people ALWAYS remember her name. It's a unique and bold name and sure to be remembered and recognized.

My name's Bernadette (known as Berni by most), I quite like my name, I've never met another Bernadette (I live in London, England). I think Berni(e) is a pretty nickname for the name.

I love this name, it's strong yet totally delicate and womanly! One of my favourite names. ;)

Along with Berni(e), I have also heard that the nickname Bunny can be used for Bernadette.

Embarrassing Bodies' Dr Pixie McKenna's real name is Bernadette Anne McKenna.

This name is very classy and strong, but feminine. I'm not sure I like the sound of it that much, but I like it IN THEORY. I want to name my first daughter Bernadette, honoring my dad, Bernard.

Bernadette is a character in tv show The Big Bang Theory.

Lovely Irish actress Bernadette O'Farrell (1924-99), well-known in England for playing Maid Marian in the Robin Hood TV series.

Maybe if I were French. It wouldn't go over where I live.

I like the story of Saint Bernadette, so this would be a nice name.

I absolutely love this name. It's classy, graceful and feminine but not overly frilly - it reminds me a lot of 'Barbara' that way. Definitely on my shortlist. Besides, I love the story of St Bernadette.
