Well mine is, and I also know of Helen Bell, Helen May and Helen Walsh. Who else? To think my dad chose Helen because it wasn't common!! [My mum preferred Angela & Jessica]

Only three others? In my local fh group (usually less than 30 of us, both sexes) there can be four Brendas. Nice to be popular, but you can have too much of a good thing. With the exception of Nellie, you can have all sorts of pretty diminuitives. Enviously Brenda
