Help[Opinions] Re: Tirion
in reply to a message by Flare En Kuldes
You're right, and I think the Tolkien comparison came up in a previous discussion. I'm struggling to recall any feminine character names ending in -ion. The closest I can come is -ien, which kinda sounds similar. But I don't think the suffix was gender-designated, either.
I think the name looks pretty gender-neutral, but it sounds more on the feminine to me. It has elements that appeal to me when it comes to female names. I would also call it a soft boys' name before a masculine girls' name (I also like softer boys' names). I understand where you're coming from, though.
As for modern, nonliterary boys' names: I choose to ignore them. ;)
