Help[Opinions] Gladys, Vivian, Ira, and Jotham
I've been watching some 1930s movies lately, and Gladys has really caught my fancy. It's just very sweet and I love the -ys ending.
Vivian is the name of the security guard where I work and it's really growing on me for a girl. It makes me think of the color purple - the actual color, not the book or movie.
I've heard Ira is an old man's name, but I don't know any old men by that name. To me it sounds fresh and hip. I've noticed it's just remade the US Top 1000 after a long absence.
Jotham is another cool biblical name. I mostly just like how it rhymes with Gotham, sine I'm a Batman fan.
Anyway, WDYT? Would they make a good sibset?
Would Gladys and Ira sound too old as a sibset?
Do Vivian and Jotham pair up well?

You know, around the time I joined this site I really liked the combo Gladys Emily. I thought it was a perfect combination of old and new. I still find Gladys to be a very cheerful name - I mean "glad" is right there!
Vivian is gorgeous, though I'm more partial to Vivienne (particularly as a first name).
Can't say I'm a fan of Ira (makes me think of Iris and Irene, which are feminine names) or Jotham, though. Sorry.

I've always liked Ira.

I love this sibset!
Gladys and Ira sound old, but in a cool vintage way. I agree with you about Ira, it sounds very fashionable to me.
I have never heard of Jotham before. I first thought the J was pronounced as a Y. Not sure how I feel about this name (though love the Gotham thing!) but it goes well with Vivian, Gladys, and Ira.
