Love it! My Aunt's niece is called Florence, with the nickname Florrie and I think it's an adorable name!
However, when Florence's Mum had a second child recently, my boyfriend kept joking that they'd name it "The Machine". It's not really that bad but might put some people off... I still love Florence though!

I've been really loving this name lately. Because of Florence Welch from the band Florence + the Machine. I have a bit of a crush on her. I just love her voice, her fashion sense and I find her to be so beautiful. Her full name is Florence Leontine Mary Welch. Leontine is a very interesting name as well.
I love how retro and romantic feeling the name Florence is. I've always liked the name Florence but I use to feel like it was too much of a place name because of Florence Italy and Florence Oregon. Of course Florence Italy is really Firenze, Fiorenza or Florentia. These days I feel like Florence is less of a place name and more of a person name. Florence is definitely amoung my top 50 names but it might even be in my top 25.

Really nice name. Rare, where I live - don't know any Florences, actually - but familiar. Flows nicely. Elegant but not frilly.
Also a GP as a boy's name. Something about the -ence ending, I think (I've even read Constance as a male name in the past, without thinking) and seeing it as a place name.

I love it. I think it's beautiful, I don't really see how people think it's dowdy.

...Henderson. Or Nightingale.
It's kind of dorky to me.
