[Opinions] Re: Conor
in reply to a message by Siân
But Finlay is so perfect as is. (pouts) In the mn position, you don't think it's worth a more authentic spelling? How much trouble could the "-lay" ending cause there? It would be like setting an emerald (Conor) in a fake gold setting (Finley).
I love mixing cultures in combos. The Irish do it all the time. I love watching movie credits to cull for interesting names. Consolata Boyle is listed many times in movies filmed in Ireland. She's a costume designer, I think. Anyway, how romantic is that, Consolata Boyle? I know that's a fn / surname example, not a fn / mn one, but the effect is the same, to me. Others: Eamonn de Valera, Soledad O'Brien. So float away with Conor Elias -- he's a dreamboat.
Go, hipster friends, go!
Conor and Max do seem like brothers, don't they?
