Help[Opinions] Re: Sky
in reply to a message by Rachel Shaina
I find it pretentious and silly. To my knowledge, it hardly if ever happens where I live, so I'm not habituated.
Skye to me suggests the island, not a female sky! And I heartily laugh at Skyler and Skylar, though Schuyler might be passable in countries where people don't make it sound like Skyler.
What have you been reading - scifi, fantasy, gritty modern? The only fictional Sky I've ever encountered was the male lead in Guys and Dolls, taken from a Damon Runyon story; in his case it was a nn based on his extravagant gambling habit, and made total sense.

I've been reading modern-day realistic fiction.
These:
http://www.goodreads.com/series/85919-gives-light (the main character is named Skylar, but he is called Sky most of the time)
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18140047-love-letters-to-the-dead?ac=1 (eta: turns out, his real name is Skylar too. yes both are this spelling).
