Re: Roberta
in reply to a message by Wordsmith
I actually like it better than Robert 'cause it's not as over-used and almost kinda cute. Knew one in high-school who was quite pleasant.
Most of the names paired w/ it aren't my style and even though I quite like Rosalie, I wouldn't pair it w/ another R name. Roberta Vivian (and variants) is good though. So are Roberta Pascale, Millicent (I don't usually care much for Millicent... big fat woman in charge of an orphanage image or rich skinny woman w/ really long cigarette and holder... however, it kinda works w/ Roberta), Margo, Lucille, Hazel, Genevieve and Frances. It even makes Lillian sound better. (not usually a fan of Lillian)
