Came across this name while watching Netflix. It's a new one for me! I thought it was kinda cute in a very clumsy, twangy way. Thinking of it as
Wayne + ette isn't so great, but Way + nette makes me think of Wynette, which is fun.
When I see a clunky feminization like this, I always assume it's a daughter named after her father. If I had been named after my dad, my name would have been
Bernadette, or maybe
Bernardine, if we wanted something really awkward!
If you had been named after the parent of the other gender, what would your name have been??
