[Opinions] Re: Suzanna and Robin!
in reply to a message by lakin5
I should like Robin on a girl ... but I don't. I've known many, and my impression of it is: middle aged, competent, plain. So it's not bad, but it doesn't have any appeal and it seems a little anemic and unsexy. The spelling Robyn gives me a similar vibe to Mysti or Krystal.
Roberta is nice but I dunno about nn Robin. Birdy (= Bertie, because it's ruh-BIRD-a in my accent) seems like a better nn for Roberta to me.
I prefer Susanna but Suzanna is alright. Suzanna looks 1970s-ish to me. It's better without an H on the end, either way. I like Susan better than Suzanna (hm. Every time I go to type the name Suzanna, I type "Sex-" and have to backspace. Weird). I like nn Sue or Susie for any Sus- name.
