Do you think the name Lorraine is to old? What middle names do you think would go with it ?

How about Jodie? IS that too old ? WHat middle names do you think would go?

Judith?

I need some feedback?

IMO I think Lorraine is from an older generation (I think of a couple of my grandparents friends). Same with Judith (older aunt with that name), however, I do like Jodie.

Jodie Alyssa
Jodie Brianne
Jodie Lynn

...are just a couple I can come up with.

Good luck!

I haven't heard Lorraine in a while, but I like it. It might be a bit out of use, but I don't think it's too old. I might like it better as a middle name, just because of the sound (i.e., Alison Lorraine, Patricia Lorraine, Andrea Lorraine, etc.)

Jodie does sound a bit out of date too me -- more 60's and 70's, but it's not a bad name.

I really like Judith. Again, it's not used very much, but I think it has a classic appeal.

As far as middle names, I'll give it a shot.

Lorraine Joyce
Lorraine Patricia
Lorraine Margaret
Lorraine Elise
Lorraine Elizabeth
Lorraine Faith

Jodie Alyssa
Jodie Corinne
Jodie Melissa
Jodie Lauren
Jodie Lorraine
Jodie Suzanne

Judith Elizabeth
Judith Victoria
Judith Marina
Judith Dianne
Judith Christine
Judith Teresa
Judith Camille

Lorraine is too old in my opinion, how about Laureen instead, I know woman in her early 30's by that name. Its very pretty. Judith is nms. I could live with Jodi but its not feminine enough forme, even though it is a girl name.

Jodi Marie

Jodi Olivia

Jodi Michelle

Jodi Christine

I like Laureen , hope you do too!

I think all three sound very "middle-age". Jodie is the only one I could see on a little girl, but if you use a nn for Lorraine (like Lori) I think it could work well on a child. Judith is kind of blah in my opinion, not bad but not good.

I like those names. If you think the names are 'old', try a new spelling. Instead of Lorraine, try Lorrayne. Instead of Jodie, drop the 'e' and spell it Jodi (this is my best friend's name and her middle name is Lynn and we call her Jolynn). Instead of Judith, try Judythe or Judithe. As for middle names, Marie, Anne, Noelle, Michele, Kathryne (another different spelling for an 'old' name.)
