Help[Opinions] Re: Sandra
in reply to a message by Wordsmith
I've loved that name since I was a little girl and named my favorite doll Sandra. I say it SANN-dra, but I think SAWN-dra is okay. SAWN-dra sounds to me like European or it's trying to be European (I'm American).
I do think it's dated, but not so dated that it would be ugly on a baby.
I probably wouldn't use it myself. Not sure why - just doesn't suit a daughter in this family.
I don't really go for Sandy. I think it makes a better nick for a boy named Alexander. But it's okay on the right person. I worked with a woman named Sandy (for Alexandra) - she'd be about 30 now. It was really cute on her. She looked like a Sandy because of her naturally beach-bum-blond hair.
I like Sandra Gwendolyn, Sandra Millicent, and I would like Sandra Cleo and Sandra Eve too, if they didn't remind me of Sandra Dee. I don't feel like it goes with most of the more romantic middle names - since it's a short form they seem heavy with it. How about Sandra Lark or Sandra Karen?
