[Opinions] Re: Jill.
in reply to a message by vigdis
Jill, to me, is surrounded by clouds of question marks.
I like Jill for its brisk energy; Jill could be and probably was the tennis partner of all those Joan and Pam young women in Betjeman. I knew one once who was mostly known as Jilly, though, which I just couldn't enjoy. And I vastly prefer Gillian to Jillian, but I would hope that either of them could just remain its full-length self and not get truncated.
I've always enjoyed Laura Gillian. Just Jill ... off the top of my head, what about something unexpectedly exotic, like Jill Claudine? Gives it an edge.
