Enid

[Taurean]

Enid is really cute! A lot of the old names have or are making a comeback - Ruby, Grace, Isobella/Isobel, Ivy, Rose, Elsie (our choice for a middle name), etc.

Your baby will suit the name you choose and don't worry what others say. Another name you might like to consider is Eden. It sounds a bit like Enid but has a bit of a modern spin to it.

My Grandmother was known as Enid even though it was her middle name... her first name was Florence and back in those days the abbreviation "Flo" was quite common... and she just didn't like it. She also was a very calm and patient person.

I also love old fashioned names and have brought back quite a few with my children (middle names included). Having worked in an ELC I have heard many "old fashioned names" in use again: Harriet, Trudie (full name Gertrude), Connie (fullname Constance) and Hester. So really Enid will most likley fit right in because I'm sure the trend will continue. I reeeeeally like Edith as a name but my DH vetoed it as well.
