Help[Opinions] Re: Betony
in reply to a message by SierraNevada
It's cute and usable.
I had written it on a list of herb-names I made a long time ago when I was more creative about names ... I had no idea it was an actual name in use. It's sort of Katniss-ish, but since it's not famous that's ok.
I think the only real trouble you might expect with it is that people might try to say it with three clear syllables. One might feel a little silly correcting them. Sort of like telling someone "it's not choc-o-late, it's choc-late." But I guess that isn't such a biggie, since almost all of the time, first introductions are spoken.
Oh, and I'm dying to make a pun using the phrase "bettin' he" ... but that's not really a problem either, you can do that with bazillions of names. =)
