Comments for the name Hattie

Hattie Jacques, British comedienne.

Hattie was the elder stepsister in 'Ella Enchanted'.

I love this name. I makes me think of someone pretty and honest, with blue eyes and light brown hair.

Hattie McDaniel was the first African-American actress to win an Academy Award, for Best Supporting Actress for her role of Mammy in Gone with the Wind (1939).

Cute form of Hariet.

I personally like this name, not enough to use it though. But if someone else does, go for it. Hattie would sound refreshing today in the world of Emily's and Madison's.

I love the name Hattie. It's a cuit, smart, modern, girly kinda name!

Hattie is an adorable nickname, although I wish it was used for a name other than Harriet.

This name sounds so snotty and mean. Eww.

Sounds too much like an adjective formed of 'hat'. Also, too old-fashioned and youthful.

I like this name better than Harriet. It's simple, but not flat and boring. Sounds like a name of someone who is youthful, pretty and intelligent.

Rachel Bilson has a younger sister named Hattie. She was named after their great-grandmother, who was a screenwriter.

"The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll" is a topical song written by the American musician Bob Dylan.

The song was released on Dylan's album The Times They Are A-Changin' and gives a generally factual account of the killing of 51-year-old barmaid Hattie Carroll by the wealthy young tobacco farmer from Charles County, Maryland, William Devereux "Billy" Zantzinger (whom the song calls "William Zanzinger"), and his subsequent sentence to six months in a county jail. Dylan's song, however, sentenced Zantzinger to lifelong infamy.

The song never mentions that Zantzinger was white, and Hattie Carroll black and the lyrics are a commentary on the racism of the 1960s, which valued a black woman's life so lightly.

Hattie Carroll was killed by a toy cane.

I can't get past the association to this story - but maybe that's partly why I like the name. Now it's someone and something important to remember. Poor woman.

I think this is a beautiful name. My cousin is named Hattie, & my great grandmother was also called Hattie (although her real name was Hedwig). Hattie is an uncommon name, but sounds very pretty and unique.

It doesn't even sound like a name. It's just awful. It was also my grandma's first name (blasted mean, old woman).

Hattie Margaret (b. October 2011) is the daughter of American actress Tori Spelling and her husband Dean McDermott.

This name reminds me of the British comedic actress Hattie Jacques but it was just her stage name.
Hattie is popular with the posh set in the UK as a nickname for Harriet but I think Hallie is much prettier.
