[Opinions] Re: Cleo
in reply to a message by Catalina
This afternoon on the local news the reporter covering a story was named Cleo Green. I almost laughed out loud because Cleo itself has always seemed just plain silly to me, and combined with Green it sounds like a cleanser or hair dye or something.
No, I don't like Cleo. It's hard to picture a real, normal, ordinary person with the name, and forget all about Cleopatra. That's a one-off name if ever I heard one.
I don't like Hero either. A hero ain't nothin but a sandwich.
I do like Margo. It's elegant and different but still familiar.

A hero is a type of sandwich? I didn't know that. I figured most people would associate it with, you know, a hero like Hercules or Robin Hood or Harry Potter. I love the name because I always heard it like the women named Hero from Much Ado About Nothing and the myth of Hero and Leander. But that being said, I also like names like Perdita and Hermione.
