Re: Bill, Beck, Thom, Clem...
in reply to a message by molly
Bill Brewer -- I'd like Brewer if it were a family name for you. Otherwise, it looks like the parents are alcoholics. Bill is a nice nn, but I wouldn't use it without William, Willem, etc.Beck Kenzeth -- Kenzeth? Again, only if it's a family surname for you. Beck is nice. Refreshing. Clemente Frank -- I love Clement for a boy. But Clemente reminds me of San Clemente, the prison. Frank is great to see. But aren't these two names together reminiscent of the gunfight at the OK corral? I could be wrong on this, but it's ringing bells.Lawrence Lynn -- I'm not into repeated first initials, but I love both names. It's nice to see the nn Larry being considered again.I wouldn't put Thom and Dillon together. Dylan Thomas is too distracting. The Thom spelling is OK for a nn, but the, "Where is the -as at the end?" thing makes me eyes itch. Thomas Evan, Thomas Owen, Thomas Morgan? The only spelling I like is Dylan; Dillon looks too surname-y to me.
