[Opinions] Re: Alix
I kind of dislike Victoria a little bit too, but it does lend itself well to having a tonic syllable on the golden ratio, which for me is almost requisite. I have to have a place in the middle name that is the tension climax of the entire name and a small release of tension after said point. In that instance, Victoria does work musically. The golden ratio is something about which I am ever cognizant.I'm developing theoretical analysis. People love to throw around the word "flow" but offer little intelligent theory to back up what makes things flow (a word I think is overused).Frances Matilda -- golden mean; tonic on "til"
Theodora Catherine -- golden mean; tonic on "Cath"
Lydia Caroline -- displeasing; syllable 1 of 3 tonic repeated, no single climax; thwarted climax, tedious :(
Annette Lavinia -- displeasing; tonics vie for climax, too much decay after "nette"
Marie Winifred -- displeasing; tonic syllables adjacent; laborious and unmusical.Timeline of an example of a pleasing first-and-middle-name combination:--------(suspense)----------------------(!!!!)--(decay)----------!!!! = climax (here roughly at golden mean)I believe these principles also apply to sentence structure, especially script writing. I have different aesthetics for purely French combinations, but let's hold off on that for now.
