Help[Opinions] Re: Franklin?
in reply to a message by schandrou
It's alright. I agree the -lin ending is pleasing, in theory. It's the Frank part that leaves me cold.
It reminds me - not intensely, but enough to make me avoid it - of Frankenstein and rankling and 'Frankly I don't give a damn.' The -ank sound in it still feels heavy and ugly.
Anyway I think a Franklin would be likely to get called Frank / Frankie, and it would seem stuffy to insist on Franklin.

I agree. I think I just would used it on a character in a story or a sim.
