User Comments about the name Ursula


Comment left Nov 19, 2009: "It is a beautiful name despite Disney ruining it for some people. Come on! Ursula Andress was beautiful, Ursula Le Guin is a great author and as someone mentioned it, Ursula Iguaran (100 Years of Solitude) is a great character. So many great role models, and you take a cartoon character (that has no name and a not evil in the original "Little Mermaid") to base your opinion! What a restricted brain!"

Comment left Oct 29, 2009: "I hate it. Its just terrible and makes me think of the ugly sea witch in little mermaid and i can't imagine a child with that name D: sorry" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Sep 28, 2009: "Ursula is a caracter of one of my favorite books, "100 Years of Solitude", it is also one of my favourite names." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Sep 21, 2009: "Love it! it is beautiful, it is a name that is strong and cute at the same time. I went to St. Ursula Academy and love reading Ursula K. Le Guin. It will be my little girl's name when I have one." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Sep 14, 2009: "We named our baby Ursula, she was born in March 2009. It is a beautiful and strong name. Our girl is very beautiful too. I did not know about the sea monster from the little mermaid, I did see the movie before but I paid no attention to the sea monster. It is still a beautiful name and our lives are not guided by Disney. Ursula is also the name of several authors, a saint, Ursula Andress... there are more role models then sea monsters. It is a beautiful, unique and strong name! Cheers for all the Ursulas out there!" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Aug 03, 2009: "Named our daughter Ursula this year. Beautiful name. For strong person. Hope she'll be the one." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Jun 24, 2009: "I was in my therapist's office last week & we were discussing the fact that her friend who is a meduim/psychic/shaman says I am also a meduim. I was just sitting there looking out the window and suddenly I heard the name "Ursula" in my head. I do not know what this means or why I heard that name. Anyone have any ideas?" (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Jun 23, 2009: "It's actually a cute name. I find it to be very exotic, me being a writer and always looking for some interesting names. Of course, I'm not exactly sure if I could use this name. Whenever I think of Ursula I think of the octopus woman from The Little Mermaid. If it wasn't her name, I would give this name a full on thumbs-up." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left May 26, 2009: "Well my name is Ursula and i hate that name,i have gone to the extent of changing my name by calling myself something else.It was ok when i was little but then that darn disney movie came out and omg it was over school became the worst place to be =(" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Mar 18, 2009: "My name is Ursula and I too did not like it as a child. I was in 4th grade when the Little Mermaid came out with the big Octopus...needless to say, kids are mean and I was picked on A LOT which led me to hate my name. As an adult I like it ok now. I like having a unique name and people always think I must be exotic :)" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Mar 10, 2009: "I adore the name, and it's definitely on my list of potential girl names. I always remember Pel's beautiful but difficult girlfriend in the novel "Things My Girlfriend and I have Argued About"" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Feb 18, 2009: "i keep thinking of a fat, evil octopus...of course, my generation was the one that was ruined with Disney movies." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jan 03, 2009: "My baby was born yesterday. We're calling her Ursula. I think it sounds beautiful and denotes a strong personality." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Dec 10, 2008: "My name is Ursula and the correct way of saying it is ER-SA-LA... My name is unique and in todays society thats what its about... Standing out! You gotta b different to make the world interesting!... Yes, as a little girl i absolutly hated the name! But now as a 23 year old i love it and i think i carry the name well! You can call me *Urss*" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 09, 2008: "I'm 6 months pregnant with a girl, and my husband and I love the name Ursula. My family absolutely hate it because they think it's old-fashioned, but some of the most popular trendy names today aren't that new: Emily, Sarah, Abigail. Not to mention the other unique names that are out there: McKenzie, Brianna, Kaylee, Jada. So, Ursula shouldn't be made fun of in today's world. It's ADORABLE and our daughter will be unique. We're calling her Ula for a nickname." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jul 12, 2008: "As a child I was in Ballet class with very fine ballet masters from Russia.In my class was another little girl named Ursula. In their wonderful Russian accents the name was pronounced as "Your'-sala". It was such a beautiful sound that 45 years later the name, for me, is still filled with the sound of breathless romance, sheer loveliness." (Report as inappropriate)
