[Opinions] Phryne
My cousin and I were watching Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries (starring Essie Davis). Miss Fisher's first name is Phryne (FRYE-nee).
What do you think about Phryne? I like it, but I wish it didn't mean "toad"!

Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?

I dislike the way it looks and the way it sounds (but the way it looks is worse).
I actually laughed out loud when I read it means toad.
Apart from that, I like the way it sounds, but it doesn't look very attractive. Maybe with some other spelling? I don't know.

Love it
And I actually like that it means "toad" but I'm a frog person, lol.

Not a fan.
I don't like the fact that it means "toad".

I wouldn't name a child like a courtesan.
I love the show and love the books, but I don't care for the name. It's so harsh and it's a pain to say.
It's sort of interesting because of the letters in it and the voiced e at the end. I think it sounds kind of ugly and harsh, though. Phryne Fisher makes me think of frying fish.
I guess I could get used to it, but I don't think I'd ever really like it.
