Re: Ernestine

Ernestine reminds me of an episode of Sesame Street- Ernie is holding his new baby cousin, baby Ernestine.
I love feminized male names, and I've certainly been on an -ine kick as of late... That said, I haven't warmed much to Ernestine. It's cute in a fusty, frumpy way. It might be how I felt about Millicent before I fell head over heels.
As for nns, Ernie would be cute. Tina would work, as might Nessa. Etta?
I like Ernestine Rose. Susanna Ernestine Rose doesn't flow well for me, Susanna is too long. Would Sarah Ernestine Rose work for you? Susan Ernestine Rose? Susanna Ernestine, sans Rose, sounds nice.
