Re: Estella
in reply to a message by Lily8
It's been many years since I read Great Expectations so I don't associate the name Estella with the character in the book anymore, especially after having met a few Estellas. I think the only way Estella will make a comeback into the top 100 is if it's featured in a popular book/movie (ex: Trinity), or if it's the name of a popular actress or her child...I personally like Stella more than Estella, though both are quite pretty. I don't think it's harsh or hard to say at all.As for the image it conjurs up - all the Estellas I know (the whole 3 of them lol) are all very sweet, polite young ladies, so I think of a nice, polite, kind, and sort of pretty girl when I hear the name.
