[Opinions] Re: Alicia
in reply to a message by Caroline
Alicia ... that was the name of a childhood friend! I had forgotten. I think it's a pretty sounding name. Nice sounding, just not nice looking.
I just don't like the spelling. If it were correctly, naturally, classically spelled Alecia, Aletia, Alesha, or something, anything that didn't have that LIC with the LEES or LEESH pronunciation ... I'd like it a lot more. I think it fires my "delicious" neuron too much and so it seems sorta tonguey to me. Same deal with Alice. If it were spelled Alis or Alys, I would like it tons more.
