Re: a few questions
in reply to a message by mirfak
1. Francis called Frank / Frankie - What's your impression and stereotype? I have a mixed feelings about how I see Frank as a nickname. One of my personal associations (a great uncle) was a really kind man and another was a wife-beater (my aunt's ex husband). Francis is quite traditional to me, especially with it being a saint's name.
2. Pick ONE of: Drew or Merrick. Drew, though I dislike nicknames as first names. I dislike surnames as first names even more though.
3. Robin for a boy: do you think it is very masculine, or does it sound kind of "soft" or weak to you? I don't think it sounds soft or weak. I associate it moreso with a kind and caring individual like the character, Christopher Robin in Winnie the Pooh.
4. Which is nerdier: Keith, or Marshall? Marshall, because it reminds me of Eminem.
5. How do YOU pronounce Leif? LAYF
6. Which of these names I've mentioned do you like most? Least?
I like Francis the most, Merrick the least.
