Contest Time - Name That 60's Mannequin Head!

Look at this groovy lady I found last weekend- according to her former owner, she came from a department store in the late 1960's! How often does something like this come around?

So, in her honor (yes, I'm selling her, I know, I'm heartless!), I am having a contest - Name That 60's Mannequin Head! Leave a comment with your suggestion, and on Monday I will use the Random Generator to pick her new name.

The winner will get the item of their choice from the sale section in my Etsy shop - did I mention the Etsy Vintage Street Team is having a sale through the 17th? It's the Under $12 Sale, just search the tag EVSTsale - tons of great stuff, over a thousand items the last time I checked!

    What a fun find! Can I suggest Clementine? She looks like a face that would be happy under a picnic tree in the summer. :)
    love your blog, btw! I'm just getting new to etsy and had no idea there was a special tag for vintage sales!

    I'd go with Ariel--she looks so light and fairy like. Great find!

    I think she's a Penelope; it sounds so 'Carnaby Street'! :-)

    I think she has a bit of a French
    look to her. Very chic - especially with that 'swan' neck!

    I'll go with Zoe

    What a fabulous find!! I think she is wonderful!

    She looks like a Holly (like Holly Golightly) to me! Or a Leslie or Harmony :)
    Thanks!

    To me she channels Gigi (like the Leslie Caron movie)...

    Oh champagne and Frenchmen!

    HI, I love your mannequin. I've been looking for a blank wood dollhead such as this to paint for my home. Any suggestions on where I can purchase one? I would appreciate any tips! You can reach me at dizydesi at gmail dot com.
