I'm pretty sure Wensleydale is both a name, and a cheese

There's a few that would make good girls' names when you think about it.

Ricotta

Fontina

Mozzarella (she goes by Ella, to her friends)

I think I've met a Fontina before.

Actually some of these cheese names could go down as kids names, now that people have started using weird name spellings.

For nerds like me. The female name is short for Brianna or Gabriella. The cheese name is from the French region of Brie where it originated in. That region got its name from the Gaulish word briga meaning "hill" or "height".

Maytag Blue has a pretty good ring to it.
