Rolling Stones names

Claudine

French feminine variation of Claude

There are much chicer versions of this name today, such as Claudie, Claudia, or Claude itself. Claudine is a name wobbling on the edge of extinction.

Suzie

Short form of Suzanne, Hebrew

"lily"

Suzie (and Susie) was the one of the It Nicknames of midcentury America, right up there with Debbie and Kathy. Suzie and all her sisters are off their popularity peak now, but not forever. Look for…

Fanny

Diminutive of Frances, English from Latin

"from France; free man"

As this word is less often used to mean derriere, it becomes more possible to view Fanny as the kind of appealingly quaint nickname name, like Josie and Nellie, that many parents are favoring now.

Rainbow

English

"rainbow"

Colorful, yes, but also probably among the hippiest of hippie names. Holly Madison recently chose it for her little girl.

Merry

English

"lighthearted, happy"

She'd better be. Merry is one of the classic names for Christmas babies .
