[Opinions] Re: Winifred
in reply to a message by StarGirl
I've never thought of it as masculine, though Winfred is very similar. I like it with Winnie as a nn, though it's not something I'd probably ever use on a child (too many Winnie the Pooh jokes, and as much as a I love Winnie the Pooh, I don't think I'd do that to my daughter :b).
Speaking of Pooh, his name is Winnie, which is usually seen as feminine. Maybe it's short for Winifred, then, or Winfred or Winston. Or just Winnie. :)
Edited:...To answer my own question. Clicking on Winnie I see that Winnie is short for Winnipeg. LOL.
