[Opinions] Really?
in reply to a message by Ninor
I feel like Miriam would fit perfectly with any of those. They are all retro, mature, conservative religious names. They totally work for me!

I guess Miriam might give people in the US a different feeling. To me Miriam isn't retro or conservative. I'd imagine her siblings being named stuff like Felicity, Emilia, Leonora, Sigrid, Julian, Isidore, August, Silas, Zacharias....

BTW I love August, Sigrid, Zacharias and Leonora (really love this) and Julian has been a contender. But my husband has nixed them all.

I can see it go either way. It's an old name, like a conservative version of Mary, so I can see it with other old names. OTOH, it's got trendy sounds in it, with the ee sounds, so I can see it with modern trendy names too.
