I love Bridget! I also appreciate the Brigid spelling.

It's not my favorite but I do think "B" on it's own is an adorable nickname

I liked it when I was younger, but now I'm trying to find its appeal. Bridgette is an eccentric and superficial spelling, I prefer Brigitte's accesible charm. When it comes to nicknames, I like Brie and Bree.

I adore this name but I married a man named Jones so it was easy to cross it off my list.

I've gone back and forth on this name for a long time. I really like it sometimes, and sometimes I think it sounds kind of unpleasant. Even when I like it, I don't think it's all that pretty.

Don't care for any nicknames for it. I don't think they're necessary.

And Bridgette looks bizarrely and unnecessarily ornate. I've encountered Brigitte more, and like that slightly more than Bridgette, but not by much.

Brigid and is relations are less attractively to me, the "d" sound and the end makes them sound unfinished.

It's never been a favorite, but it's definitely usable and pretty.
I knew the absolute nicest mom named Bridget- now I have a bit of a soft spot for it.

I've never really liked it. The sound is like a frog croaking. It makes me think of a cliched Irish servant.

I like this name. And I prefer Brie or Bree instead Biddy as Bridget's nickname.

Bridget is really cute, warm, and strong. It's underappreciated! I've heard of Birdie and Biddie as nicknames for Bridget, those are cute.

Bridgette is all right too, but I think I generally prefer Bridget.

Bridget is a fun name, though hardly elegant (some parents aren't looking for that, though). I went to school with a girl whose name was spelled Bridgett, two Ts, and she hated her name as a child. I wonder what she thinks of it now...

I don't care for Bridgette, though--it looks like the emphasis is supposed to be on the second syllable: bridge-ET.
