[Opinions] Re: Kazakh and Mongolian names
in reply to a message by molly
Yaay! You replied! It seems a lot of times when I ask people for pronunciations, I never get a reply so thank you for your response. :)
I really like Aigerim. It sounds like a male name to my stupid, American ears, but I like it anyway. I may even like it more for that. Not sure.
I'm not a fan of Shinggisgul. The "ghiss" part is throwing my off somehow. I do like the "guhl" part on the end a lot though. More names should have that sound. That would be cool. I bet you're correct in assuming it's linked to Chinggis. I mean, I have no proof, but it looks highly probable.
Gemira is kind of pretty. It sounds like a name you'd hear in a fantasy novel, but that's okay.
And as I suspected, I like Erhanbayir, but not Erhanbulgan. I like the "Erhan" parts of both, but "bayir" is a more pleasant sound than "bulgan" to my ears.
Thanks again for these! It makes me so excited to see people on these boards discussing names beyond just everyday English names.
