Not on your Nelly.
57 Answers
Nellie Mae - the name of Zoe Ball & Norman Cook's new little daughter. How sweet - I think this is a lovely name.
I used to have an Aunty Nellie, and who 'of a certain generation' can ever forget Nellie Pickersgill off the telly. Wasn't she played by Hilda Baker?
Mind you, a patient here had a daughter just before Christmas and called her Gladys. Now I'm not so keen on that one? What makes one old-fashioned, so called 'elderly' name sweet, and another one just naff? Lily and Grace are sweet - but who'd call a baby Glad or Hilda?
