[Opinions] Re: Seth
in reply to a message by hope
I like it well enough. It's strong, Biblical, and masculine. It's got that nineteenth-century Old Testament charm.I knew a guy named Seth Alexander, and he went by his middle name and was called Alex. He hated his first name Seth so much that he kept it a secret from all but his closest friends. He wouldn't even tell me directly what it was, but instead gave me clues such as "It was the name of Adam and Eve's third son". It was like he couldn't bring himself to utter the name.Oh, well, this guy was such a jerk anyway (racist, fundamentally religious, homophobic, know-it-all) that his negative opinion would actually be to me an endorsement.
