Help[Opinions] Re: Eleanor & Zelda ...
in reply to a message by Ciarda
I think Eleanor is lovely, but I find Zelda to be rather ugly. I don't find it at all feminine. Then again, I don't care for any "Z" names - especially female "Z" names.
No, I don't think it'd be confusing if, hypothetically speaking, Eleanor and Ella were cousins. They are completely different names to me. And even if they were alike, I wouldn't find it a problem since their relationship would be (close) cousins and not siblings.
I don't even think an in-law's name should be taken into account when naming your child. Personally, I don't think those things should even be considered (re: Zelda and Velda).
Close ore not, nothing like that should stop you from using a name you like/love.
As for the combos, I do think Zelda Ruth flows, but not Eleanor Ruth. The ending "r" or Eleanor and the beginning "R" of Ruth run into each other.
