HelpRe: Anton and Anders
in reply to a message by Eliora
Right now, the first thing I think of when I hear Anton is the movie Gaslight--it's the surname of the main characters, so I associate it with a scary man and a downtrodden woman. And then I think of Thursday Next, in which case, Anton is the cool brother. ;)
Anders doesn't remind me of anything in particular on first glance, but I like it. It sounds distinguished and respectable to me, like he could be an older man in my (notoriously Norwegian) area. Andersen reminds me of Danny Kaye as Hans Christian; Anderson, of a teacher with whom I had a love-hate relationship and the song "Why Am I Me?" from the musical Shenandoah.
Anton and Anders are definitely my favourites of the bunch, and then Andersen as a mn.
