[Opinions] Re: Opinions on Perdita (and a few others)
in reply to a message by Sadie
Perdita -- Great, as long as it's pronounced, "PER-dih-ta," not "per-DEE-ta."
Margaret -- Ever lovely / stately.
Juliet -- Cute.
Katharine -- Ever beautiful.
Helena -- Love it, prefer "Helen + a" pronunciation.
Viola -- Adore it, but only if pronounced, "VIE-uh-la."
Silvia -- Love it. It's a nice alternative to tired Olivia.
Nell -- I didn't know this was a Shakespearean name. But I do love it. Very nostalgic.
Miranda -- Beautiful. Very alluring.

Oops. I should have made it clearer that not all of these are borne by important Shakespearian characters. Nell just sort of slipped in there.
