HelpRe: Jessica
in reply to a message by Octavia
I would love Jessica if it weren't a) so common and somewhat dated for people born in the 70s/early 80s b) considered tacky is Italy, as most "new" names of American influence.
Jessica Artemisia is lovely (please no Nymphadora!)
Simon is one of those names I just don't get. It's not remotely ugly, but I don't understand why everyone here likes it so much. It's kinda of boring. However, Arthur's really growing on me!

Yeah, it's dated/common/tacky here too, it'll never make my short list.
..Which is why I don't mind sticking Nymphadora with it :P
Simon seems so ... I don't know. It just seems perfect to me. It's so holy with Francis and Benedict, so old-testament with Joseph, so wise and ornery with Crow, so bold with Rudolph, so intelligent with Arthur. And as a first name, it's so simple and distinctive and handsome, but with a certain edge to it that nothing else has. The long I, the slick S. A dignity, but a strange kind of dignity...
...no one in the real world things this hard about names. I love Simon very much though.
