Help[Opinions] Re: Lilith
in reply to a message by larsk
Well, "triste" is the French word for "sad" so of course Tristan doesn't sound very nice to a person who speaks French. I think it's okay, though.
I love Lilith. It's one of my favorites. I wouldn't have a problem using it but if the meaning of a name is so important to you then maybe you should look for alternatives.
"...and replaced by Eve because she would not submit to him".
- isn't that a good thing ? that she wouldn't submit to him, I mean. I consider that a good thing....
okay so the "night demon" thing isn't that great but remember that your child won't become a demon just because she is named Lilith. I know many girls named Leah and they aren't wild cows or always tired either.
The meaning of a name is just something someone made up or derived from some word a long long time ago...
If the meaning really puts you off how about:
Lillis
Liliana
Lily
Lilian
Lilia (love this)
