Re: Eleanor and Evelyn
in reply to a message by Yellow Rose
I like Eleanor. I think it's very elegant and not old-lady-ish at all. Nora is a bit old sounding though. Well, not 'old' really, but just too bland for Eleanor. It's like using Sarah for Seraphina, or Karen for Kreszentia. I prefer Ela, Nor, and Elen.
Evelyn is a little, well, I don't know. Sometimes I like it, but sometimes the -lyn turns me off, because -lyn used to be the -aden of girls names... I like Evie though.
