re: Adelaide.

Quoting Piyo Piyo:" Um, So I watched American Horror Story Season 1 on Netflix and I really like some of the names, (Violet, ... [snip!] ... some of the names, (Violet, Vivian, etc), but this stood out to me. Adelaide is quite nice.   Thoughts? Love, hate, just blah?"

Quoting 36-24-36OnlyIfshes5-3:" Hate it, sounds like a beverage. Kool-aide lemonade, limeade, Adelaide."

hehe, Maybe why I like it. With a thick southern like my aunt's it would sound sooo heavenly like those words.

I have been thinking about Violet a lot. I am so sad that it is so damn popular. It really is a very nice name. DH would never go for any of those names though, Ugh.

Adelaide is the name of the town I live in, so in my opinion, no it is dreadful and not really a "baby name" by my books - just like I wouldn't name my kids Dakota, Montanna, London, etc.

I understand that one. The county I grew up in was Trinity and I never understood how that was a baby name. ha.

I love Adelaide.

I like the name.

t's my daughters middle name, and I love it, but now I wish I would have used Adele.

it was a persons name before it was the name of your town just FYI  
means:



Noble kind; of the noble sort"
