HelpRe: Strangely...
in reply to a message by 1066
I like the Perse sound too a lot too, but the fact that it's got that emphasized and super popular phone phanie fany sound (which is the sound I dislike - clarifying) cheapens it a bit to me *shrug*
Anyhoo. Do you have any middle names planned? I am excited to see combos.
(Also BTW I think you have probably the most sensible ticker I have ever seen.)

I was thinking about Persephone Margaret for a while, and John said he'd allow that, but he wasn't a fan at all... so I decided no. Right now I'm thinking about:
Persephone Sara (I like the s and r sounds repeated from Persephone)
Persephone Anna
Persephone Leah
I enjoy both Anna and Leah very much on their own. I suppose I have a thing for two-syllable middle names with Persephone. Even Margaret, though it looks long, is just pronounced like Mar-gret the way I've ever heard it. I have though briefly about one-syllable middle names like Leigh, but they just seem too filler-y and I think I'd rather have no middle name than a filler one that I don't truly enjoy on its own merits.
And thanks about my ticker.

Oooh I love Persephone Anna. Sara's nice too, but I just think Anna is the better name :P The directly repeated sounds of -e Le- bug me a bit but it is fine also. I agree about 1 syllable MN's, that would be VERY singsongy. Trochees go great with Persephone. (I know you totally are not asking for suggestions but Persephone Helen just came to mind and I feel as though I should type it.)
Anyway I am excited. Did I say that?

Suggestions are greatly appreciate. I made the mistake of asking for middle name suggestions on my babycenter birth board, and apparently the consensus is that I should choose Ann or Lynn. :/ No.
Helen is lovely. And I'm glad you're excited. :)
