Josephine? Too old?

Question

We have to have a "J" name and I love the name Josie if it's a girl... so I thought we'd name her Josephine and call her Josie.  Any opinions?  My mom says it sounds too old fashioned, which is what I liked about it.

Answer

Love Josephine!! Old names are beautiful. We are naming our daughter Penelope and I feel like it is an older name.

Answer

I think older names are making a comeback. I like it. It's classic and you can call her by the nickname.

Answer

We're naming our little one Esther, which isn't a particular common name (I've met a few older ladies, but no one my own age or younger with the name) I love it. 
I like Josephine, I think it's a lovely name (its my middle name though, so I might be a little biased!)

Answer

LOL I don't think it is too old!

Answer

My name is Josephine and everyone calls my Josie. I'm 17. I was born in 1999

Answer

I really like the name Josephine! I think it has a lot of character and even a bit of mystery to it 😊 
(But then again, I love names with history!)

Answer

I wanted to name my daughter Josephine, but my husband overruled!

I still like it though.

Answer

I agree with mom! Josephine does sound a bit old fashioned. I would choose another J name just to keep the options opened.

Answer

I would name her Josephine and call her Josie or another nick name .  Think of what her name will look like on a resume in 20 years .

Answer

I like it, as she gets older if she decided she wants something more "professional" she can go by Josephine, and if not she can keep going by Josie. I love old fashioned names. I have a niece named Victoria Kathleen, and I loooove her name. And her lol.
