Help[Opinions] Re: Thoughts on the name Chance for a girl?
in reply to a message by Guest
It's the name of a perfume by Coco Chanel, so to me it doesn't seem totally outlandish on a lady type. I mean, I know it's a regular word as well, but it has that association to something typically "feminine" so it's not as abruptly masculine as something like James.
I can see it on a girl, is what I'm saying. It does sound like it should be the name of a scrappy heroine from a romance novel - the kind where it's a big problem that her hair is just so annoyingly full and lustrous, her eyelashes are too long, and her skin has a sprinkling of adorable freckles that she hates with a passion; that kind of thing.
I think it could work as a self-chosen name. I would have hated my childhood even more if my name had been Chance, though. My god I can't even imagine.
