[Opinions] Re: Audrey vs. Marilyn
in reply to a message by Billina
Audrey. I like Audrey. There aren't any names quite like Audrey, are there? I don't think so.
I don't think of Hepburn, if there's a Hollywood actor connection behind this question. I'm too young to think of her. I wouldn't think of Marilyn Monroe if I met a young Marilyn either (although I do if I encounter a girl or woman named Monroe).
Marilyn is nice, too, and I'd appreciate seeing it on a young person. But -lyn just doesn't thrill me. It's like -een, that way. I like some names that have it, but I never love them. If it were Marion vs Audrey, that'd be harder to decide.
