Re: Rainer
in reply to a message by Eilis
I prefer Rainier, but Rainer's good too. Karl Rainer - reminds me of something; don't know what. Nice enough.
Rainer Koloman - oh hell yes. This is just glorious in its Germanic-ness.
William Rainer - looks a little too much like a FN/LN to work entirely, imo
Rainer Lawrence - I prefer Laurence, but this is very, very good.It seems versatile enough to me, and certainly works with non-Germanic names. I like it :)

oh hell yes.I thought that as well. :-D I love Koloman. It's one of those names that I just delight in and as soon as I stumbled upon it I figured I'd hold it to the bitter end. Now that you mention it I agree with William Rainer sounding a bit too first name/surname. Thanks!
