It used to go........'have you seen that .............' who was the barmaid,
Which was a man talking to another man and they went phurrr or something.
She was big busted gal, like I say, only in the 70s/80s....lol.

Ok I'll tell..............it's just horrible, apologies to anyone else called it, (doubt it though)

                        Doreen.........there! I've said it!!......🤮

I was surrounded by Debra's, Sharon's and Tracey's at school, I think the 1960's, when I was born,  were awful for names, mine isn't one of those but I have always hated it as I always thought it was a bit old lady, I have probably grown into it now though
I had a friend who called her daughter Mabel, when I had my son in 2001, but I have noticed there are more of the old fashioned names around, heard of an Edith recently.

Aaaaaaaaaaarrggghhhhhh Jill,that was my sisters name and my aunts and my husbands mums name,what was the advert though?
You're right tinkerbell,there was Shirley,Sandra and Wendy,if my dad had his way my FIRST name would've been Morag,don't think I'd have ever lived it down

[jillydoll]

It's not that bad!  i have heard it pronounced D'reen which sounds better than the drawn out Dooooreeeen. 

In my year at school we had about 6 Janes, a couple of Janices, several Annes, loads of Susans and Christines.  We had names like Monica, Marilyn, Glynis, Janet, Joan and Heather.

Two sets of twins in different years .........

My friend and her younger sister were in the same school year, but they weren't twins
