Help[Facts] Re: how do these names sound?
in reply to a message by Diana
"Isabel" is a good ol' name that was in our family for generations. I like it.
"Lily" is to me a more visually pleasing variant of what you list as "Lillie". (And well do I remember the days when pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful... :) )
"Tigerlily", on the other hand, sounds like a late 60's Saigon bargirl in a tight cheongsam (which is redundant) slit up to HERE! Or it brings to mind Woody Allen's "What's Up, Tigerlily?", a hilariously dubbed (into unrelated English) cheesy Chinese action flick of 1970ish vintage.
That was before he started making his wimp-as-neurotic-mess Manhattan movies, which got tiresome pretty quickly. Wonder how he would've dubbed "Crouching Tiger..."?
