Julie

Stereotype a Julie for me.   describe what you would imagine her as a child, as a teenager/young adult, and an older lady. 

What are your opinions on the name?

Dr.Loretta

Very outgoing and fun. It's a "younger" name for me, but I still think it would wear pretty well. I have very positive associations with it.

I also like Julia

I have a negative association with Julie, as a drama llama who likes to be the center of attention.

I like Julia though -- a kind, poised girl who is both thoughtful and generous.

Isn't it crazy when that happens? We're having some difficulty with a boy name for much the same reason -- any of my positive associations are DH's negative associations. It's funny and sad and really exasperating

For any age, I picture a Julie as an average blonde woman who is very smiley.

Every Julie I have ever known was blonde, petite, and upbeat. I have known 4 of them and all are about 28-45 years old now.

I see a young Julie as sweet and kind, outgoing, and I can't shake the blonde/light skinned association. Of course, it would just take meeting one Julie that is not those things to change my perception. I see Julia, Julianne, Julianna, etc. as very different than Julie. Julie, in my mind, feels very similar to Laura and Sarah. Soft and sweet.

It's blah to me.
The Julie I knew is also not super bright. Super into working out but also ate cotton balls thinking it would not only fill her up but absorb the fat.

Confident, fun, smart

Never met a Julie I didn't like!  Julie is confident and gregarious.  Julie doesn't have a problem standing up for herself but she is well liked because she is outgoing and kind.  Julie has her Sh*t together.  She's organized, calm, cool, and collected.  I imagine a blonde or red headed girl with fair colored eyes.

Julie is a great name!  Sweet, kind, light skinned with freckles, blue eyes... this is the image I have when I hear the name.  I love Julia even more and believe it ages better.  I don't have an image associated with the name Julia.

I think brown, mousey, boring. I like Julia though

I've only known one Julie, my friends mother, so my first though is middle aged lady, but I still really like the name. I also love Julia, and my daughter is actually Juliette.

allthecheese

all you who are loving on Julia, how do you pronounce it? Julie-a or Juhl-yah

parenthood4

I pronounce it Julie-a

I think of my cousin Julie, who is a tall, gorgeous brunette. She a smart, super successful businesswoman.....I personally have not known a Julia.

loopybaby

Common to all of the 3 Julies that I've known... Kind, smart, reserved, pretty, confident.

I know a Julie...who is sooo funny and smart. but I also went to school with a Julie and she was a bitch.I also know a Julia who is a little trashy, but sweet. My daughter is Juliana, with NN Juli. I like it so much better without the e. Changes the name for me. BTW DD prefers Juli. She is kind, funny and has a ton of personality. Have you considered Jules?  Just a suggestion. 

catahoulatte

I think Julie/Julia is classy. The only Julie I know is tall and brunette and attractive. I don't think I know any Julias.

Im a Julie. I know a few others. There is only one Julie I dont like. My natural hair color is dark blonde lol. Blue eyes. I like my name

allthecheese

So was I cheating to not tel ya'll that Julie is my name? my husband thinks its great of course and keeps sugesting Julia & Julian for potential LOs names. :0 anyway I've never liked it. Just seemed blah. Now if I read it or something  I can totally see it as a pretty name so it's kind of like I just have a mindset that my name is not cool lol. quote - a blonde quiet goody two shoe type of girl. - unquote I'd pretty much say I'm exactly OPPOSITE of that HAHA!!  and @ChelsiAnn13 I laughed so hard at that.... so thanks and I just wanted to know that I wasn't crazy thinking it was a blah name
