[Opinions] Re: Pascale
in reply to a message by BrilliantBlue
I adore Pascale. This might move right up near the top of my list if I didn't have a bad personal association with a Pascale. Pascal is very high on my boys' list.
1. pass-CAL (like in calorie) or pass-CALL (like in cauliflower)?
pass-CAL
2. Appropriate for a Jewish girl?
Anything can be appropriate for a Jewish girl--depends on what type of Jewish tradition she's growing up in. I would think it's ironic to myself, but probably not share that name-nerdery.
3. WDYTO nicknames Pax and Callie?
Pax is spunky, but a little affected. Callie is a very sweet nn for a sweet, sort of quiet name like Caroline, but I don't like it for more flowery names like Pascale or Calliope.
4. Some comments/your likes or dislikes from this list of combos:
I like earthy-sounding mns with Pascale.
Pascale Aheri
Pascale Atara
Pascale Ateret
Pascale Eitana / Etana - especially Eitana
Pascale Miriam - so classic
Pascale Maayan (mah-ah-YAHN)
Pascale Nitzana (would mean "Passover bud")
Pascale Ofira
Pascale Shulamit
Pascale Shaked (shah-KED)
Pascale Tikva
Pascale Tova (Tova Pascale struck me the other day) - it's great both ways
Pascale Tzafrira
Pascale Tziona
Pascale Yaakova
Pascale Zariza
Pascale Zoheret
I dislike mns that have Ls in them--they run together, to my ear.
