Amy: From the old French, meaning "beloved". Used in England since the middle ages, the name became popular in the 19th century on the publication in 1855 of "Little Dorritt" by Charles Dickens. Amy Dorritt was the saintly little seamstress of Marshalsea Prison. Amy Johnson was famous in the 20th century as the first woman to fly solo from England to Australia, in 1930.

This beautiful young lady is Miss Amy Claire Rogers from Somerset, England, looking like a little princess on her christening day. Amy was christened on 3rd April 2005.

Amy's beautiful gown was a present from her grandparents, Mr and Mrs Dix.

These delightful pictures of Amy in her "Catherine" christening gown and bonnet were sent to us by her mother, Lisa, who tells us: "The dress simply took my breath away when I opened the box - it was absolutely stunning and, although I know I am biased, she looked stunning in it. As you can see the dress, bonnet and shoes (although you can't see them) were just perfect and everyone commented on how beautiful the dress was and how beautiful it looked on her. The only semi-problem I had was getting her in it as she is such a wriggler and there was so much of it! The day was wonderful and so was the dress. Thank you for helping make her day so special."

Amy's grandfather, William Dix, sent us this charming picture of his little granddaughter trying on her gown in February, in preparation for her big day.
