[Opinions] Re: Dashiell WDYT??
in reply to a message by Dreamer22
I think of Dashiell Hammett. The name reminds me thoroughly of The Maltese Falcon, which is an awesome film. So for me, Dashiell conjures up Humphrey Bogart, smoky broads, and danger.
It's a very cool name. It's also a name that's now tied to The Incredibles, a movie I did not enjoy nearly as much as The Maltese Falcon. Dashiell's now a name that's very exposed, and I wouldn't be surprised if it became popular.
All the same, I do really like it. The Maltese Falcon is a classic movie, and one that makes me think of my father--and so I'd use it for him as much as for the writer. I'd love to meet a little Dashiell.
Are there any combos you're considering just now?

Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
See the city's ripped insides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight
