[Opinions] Re: Anton
in reply to a message by benashka
Well, first thought:
"Make of our lives,
one life.
Day after day,
one life."
I automatically think of West Side Story. Everyone does, really. Anton is a great name, and gives many nick names. Tony, Anty, Ton. Annie, maybe. It's a great sounding name, a little ethnic, but not especially out there. People will recognize it, and it you have a kid who realizes the meaning he may be annoyed. Especially if he knows a girl named Maria. People may make fun of him for that. But all in all, I love it! Love the sound, the connotations, the spelling. It's a great name.
