Re: Gretel

I've always thought it was totally adorable. Little rosy cheeks and blonde ringlets. I can't really see it on an adult, though. But I love Gretchen and Greta and think they age much better.
Gretel Primrose is awwwesome. Totally fairytaley. Yeah, I can't get past the Hansel and Gretel thing, but I like it. Surely I can't come up with anything better than that-- I'm not feeling particularly creative with combos at the moment.
Gretel Ada
Gretel Amelia
Gretel Madelief
Gretel Meredith
Gretel Ophelia
Gretel Penelope
Gretel Violet
Some of those are decent, I think.

Yeah, the whole adult thing troubles me a bit too. I could for sure see a quirky, counter-culture artsy adult carrying it, but what if a Gretel wants to be just a normal, unremarkable person - an accountant or something? She might think poorly of such a whimsical name. Welll, I guess she could just suck it up and change it when she turns 18.
Gretel Penelope has wonderful rhythm. And Gretel Meredith has a terrific whittled quality to it. Thanks!
