Honest opinion of Patricia?

Anonymous
Thoughts on Patricia? I know it's a bit of a blast from the past, but I would absolutely love to name baby after my wonderful mother. My mom goes by her full name so baby would be called Patsy or Trish(a) to differentiate.

I like it. She'll probably be the only Patsy in her entire school.

I've hated that name my whole life and that's WITH great friends named Patti and named Trisha.

I'd just give them a name that starts with P that's better. Penelope, Paige, Phoebe, Peyton, etc.

It is similar to Patrick and Patrick is a popular choice. I don't see why it couldn't work.

My first thought was Patsy Ramsey.

It always reminds me of the movie Split.

It's a regal, classic name. I like it.

Tricia is the best nickname. Patsy is too 1950s.

I don't like Trisha. It looks like a spelling mistake.

I would not use Trish or Trisha as the NN. There is some crazy woman named Trisha Paytas that is popular with the kids.

Go with Patsy.

It is a normal, established name that is spelled correctly and would sound ok in any professional setting, so it passes my test.

Oof. I was onboard with Patricia until I saw you want to call her Patsy. That’s horrible.

Maybe use Patricia as a middle name?
