[Opinions] Re: Miley.
in reply to a message by Jen
Yes, I'm such a name-nerd I did know that. I had forgotten her legal name though. I believe her father called her Smiley as a child because she smiled all the time. Smiley morphed into Miley.
But Miley is still so closely associated with Ms Cyrus that the Destiny Hope angle doesn't help, in my mind at least.
On the positive side, her parents didn't try to mangle the spelling of Destiny or Hope. And the nn Miley is cute -- fetching even. It's the over-commercialization that comes to mind when I think of her career that bothers me.
