[Opinions] Re: Deciding between two character names
in reply to a message by Amphelise
Kirrily sounds more convincingly (dinkum?) Oz than Dimity, which seems more like something from the bottom of the charts in the American Deep South in the 19th century. Another advantage is that, unlike Dimity, it isn't a lightweight cotton fabric. Granted, I haven't looked either of them up in the current charts.
I once read a kid's story in which three English siblings climb over the wrong fence and spend time in Another World: the girl's name was Penelope and the Aliens' best attempt at it (they were nice Aliens and really did try) was peNELy. Kirrily could have worked as an Alien's attempt at Caroline; but you're doing it the other way round of course.
