HelpRe: WDYTO Jezebel?
in reply to a message by hennig
Sound-wise, I like it. But the connotations are far too much - all the Biblical misogynism there is seems to reflect onto the name Jezebel. I take it you do know it's now a vocabulary word (albeit an outdated one) for any woman who is evil and scheming? Certainly not concepts I'd want to burden my daughter with in these more enlightened times.

Agreed.
I was just speaking about this name with a friend. It's associations are a bit too strong IMO. Same with Delilah, another pretty name that'd be tough to put on a girl thanks to the conotations.
