[Opinions] Re: Glenn or Ronald?
in reply to a message by Integrity
I absolutely hate the spelling Glynn! Glenn is quite likeable, however. It isn't too strange or commong, it's just right. I wouldn't use it myself, but it's nice to see it out there and liked. Also, it has a nice, if not rather boring, meaning.
Ronald, on the other hand, is way too common. I personally like it, but would never use it as a first name because of its commonness (which probably isn't a word. Oh well). It also seems a bit too strong, if you know what I mean. And Glenn is a little flimsy.
I would go with Glenn Ronald Steele of the two. This is because
1. I HATE the spelling Glynn and
2. As I said before, I think Ronald is too common to make a good fn
If the popularity issue doesn't bother you, however, I would go with Ronald Glenn Steele because it has a good flow, unlike the other combo, and, well...it would take me all day to say all the good things about it, so I'll spare you. All in all, I like Ronald Glenn Steele best. As for the nn Ronny, it's fine, I guess. I associate Roni with Veronica, so...it seems rather girly to me and everything. Also a bit boyish. But if you like it, go for it.
I love Isaac, by the way. Great name. I can understand your want to change your top combo, by the way. I get tired of mine very frequently. Isaac Ronald was nice, though:)
Maybe:
Glenn Isaac Steele
Isaac Glenn Steele
I guess you want Ronald in there, though.
