[Opinions] Re: California BA's PArt 1 + Name help :)
in reply to a message by Sabrina Fair
1. Sorry, but I really dislike Brooks as a name for either gender. It's just so distinctly a surname that it's way too impersonal to be a first name, IMO. Also, I really don't like the sound or look of it. It's so harsh and unattractive. I guess it would be an OK nn for Brooke - though I immensely dislike the name Brooke, too - but I think it would be best to leave it for the Brooks family to cherish and pass down.
2. Cozy would be plain silly as a full name, but I wouldn't mind it as a NN because I think nicknames can be just anything since they're not official. I don't particularly like it even as a mere NN, though.
Cozy could be a NN for...
Cosette
Cosima
Cosma
Jocosa
Crocetta
Consuela
Constantina
Concepta
Concetta
I like these names from the BAs:
Cedric Elijah
Gerald Smith
Zahara Danielle Lea - Zahara is becoming a guilty pleasure of mine because I'm currently obsessed with everything related to Sahara.
Ernest Lee - there's something very adorably old-fashioned, retro-chic about this combo.
Ingrid Coral
Cruz Alejandro - would sound so much better the other way around, as Alejandro Cruz
Cornelius
Genesis
