Classic and never goes out of style, let’s resurrect those grandma names!!! Ftm with baby girl. Thx!!
[name_f]Virginia[/name_f] and [name_f]Linda[/name_f]. Not exactly ripe for revival just yet.
[name_f]Teresa[/name_f] is the name of my paternal grandmother, and [name_f]Anna[/name_f] is the name of my paternal great-grandmother. I never knew my maternal grandparents, but they were Chinese. 
My grandma’s names are [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] and [name_f]Gertrude[/name_f]. One a classic that will never go out of style, and one that may never come back. But if we have another girl, I’d like to give her the middle name [name_f]Gertrude[/name_f].
One of my grandmothers is Mamie, the other is Sandra (her naturalized name, anyway). I originally edited my comment because her birth name is so uncommon.
My grandmother’s are [name_f]Mary[/name_f] and [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]. My step-grandmothers are [name_f]Jennifer[/name_f] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f].
My grandmothers are [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] and [name_f]Melvie[/name_f]; [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] is okay, but [name_f]Melvie[/name_f] just sounds gross. haha
I also had great grandmothers named [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Amy[/name_f], [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] (Went by [name_f]Tillie[/name_f]-[name_f]Sue[/name_f]) and Gwendyth.

That’s all I know without looking it up or asking.
[name_f]Pamela[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Paloma[/name_f] would be a good modern alternative.
[name_f]Gladys[/name_f] & [name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f].
Paternal: [name_f]Kathleen[/name_f] [name_f]Frances[/name_f]
Maternal: [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] [name_f]Janet[/name_f]
I love [name_f]Frances[/name_f], and an added bonus it’s my grandmother’s middle name.
My maternal grandma is [name_f]Johanna[/name_f] but she’s always gone by the Anglicized [name_f]Joanne[/name_f] ([name_m]German[/name_m]-American family)
My paternal grandma was [name_f]Barbara[/name_f].
I have considered using [name_f]Johanna[/name_f] or [name_f]Joanna[/name_f] someday to honor my grandma, but [name_f]Joanne[/name_f] itself is a bit boring/old-fashioned for my taste. My cousin is [name_f]Barbara[/name_f] after our grandma but she’s always gone by her middle name, [name_f]Jennifer[/name_f], which was much more on-trend at the time of her birth.
