[Opinions] Re: Linda, Sandra, Carol, Susan, Donna, Brenda?
in reply to a message by )(
I know people with these names and it's hard to separate the person from the name. Susan: My mom's name. I've always liked it, it's got a neat history.Donna: Donna Reed. It's insubstantial to me. It's like the Kayla of my generation. I've known lovely ones (and lovely Kaylas) but I dislike it. Carol: my aunt's name. Carol Jean & Susan Diane - very '40s. Unlike Susan I dislike Carol. I find it grating.Sandra, Linda, and Brenda: Meh. Nu strong feelings, I've known so many. They just run together, along with Patricia, Karen, Kathy, etc.The poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese. G.K. Chesteron
