[Opinions] Re: Ned and Florian
in reply to a message by Pelops
I adore Florian! It made my top ten this month. I love that it's baroque to me but quite common (if not dated) in Germany.
Ned is fun as a nickname for Edmund.
Do you like Attila? I'm newly fond of it.

I know a Matthew Florian; he has family links to Austria, which is why his parents chose this as his mn. He loves it.
Ned is fun as a nn for Edward and Edwin as well!
I taught an Attila once, who was Hungarian and very unsatisfactory: lazy and given to petty dishonesty. Since that's my only association, I'm afraid it's wrecked the name for me.

I have no name context for Attila at all aside from a title for an ancient hun. Can't say it interests me.
Wish I liked Edmund. I don't like many E-names. Internalized self-loathing? I think the Ed-names are generally drab.
Edward - strong but drab
Edmund - sort of intellectual or whatever but drab
Edwin - friendly and a little less drab
