[Opinions] Re: Bailey, Abigail and Maggie
in reply to a message by BabyNameAholic
Bailey and Maggie remind me of dogs. I have known a lot of dogs named Bailey and Maggie (also Tess). Between the three I prefer Abigail. I don't love it but it's alright, and I do like Abby as a nickname.
As for feminine versions of James: Jamesetta, and Jamisa maybe at a stretch. I do know a Jamesetta; prior to meeting her the name had sounded clunky and forced to me, but once I got used to it in real life it was just another name. I knew a Jamisa and a Jamiesa, and while I don't know if they were named with James in mind, it's a similar sound.
ETA: I'm surprised, I thought Jamesetta was in the database. I would rather that over Jamesina, if I had to chose.
