I love love love the name [name]Gretchen[/name]! No one else does, is it that bad???
I personally love the name [name]Gretchen[/name], too. I would say go for it! Or, if you still are worried about people not liking it, you could use it in the middle, too.
Great name. Strong but feminine. [name]Do[/name] not feel insecure about it. Your daughter will not.
It’s a good name and those germanic ones are about to make a comeback 
I love it too, and did consider it at one time. nn could be [name]Greta[/name] - very cute!
