[Opinions] Re: Persephone
in reply to a message by August Rose
If you don't like the way it's supposed to be pronounced, I don't think it's fair that you use it. It's like naming your child Emily and insisting that it be pronounced eMILLy, Benjamin "ben-JAY-min," Victoria vic-to-RIE-ah, Charles "Char-less." It's incorrect and it's not the same name.
I dislike how it sounds too, although it's been growing on me. If I met a Persephone I would be made happy, but if I met a Purse-a-phone I would become quite depressed and probably post an unhappy message about it on BtN.

Totally agree
Haha, well, I suppose that makes sense, but I couldn't really think of another spelling for it. and if I were to make one up, it'd be called made up, so either way I'm screwed with that name.
