[Opinions] Re: Gareth and Ellis
in reply to a message by cymrulady
I really liked Gareth a lot, except I'm a little afraid of the nn Gary, which I don't care for much. (Then again, a child born these days... by the time he's old enough to be taking a nn, Gary might be right in style again!) Anyway, I love names with "th" sounds and Gareth is just nice sounding imo.
Then I got into the show "The Office" (Brit version) and it really makes me think of that weird character. So that's kind of a turn off. Up until that point I'd really imagined a Gareth to be handsome and likable.
Ellis was the name of an extremely awkward and nerdy guy I knew in high school. And I actually always found the name kind of too feminine. I'm not saying I'd like it on a girl. But I didn't really like it on a guy either. Kind of like Addison I guess, which I find too masculine for girls and too feminine for guys.
