Annette ❤️
It was my amazing grandmother’s name. She died last year and I fully intend to use it at the very least as a middle name!
Also, Dorothy, Doris, Enid, Mary, Lorna, Ruby, Ines, Hilda, Grady, Dilys (other aunts/grandmothers/ great aunts/ etc)

These are the older generations of mine and my wife's family. Not sure how many class as "old lady though"
