HelpRe: BAs from UK
in reply to a message by Sofia
I like...
Abigail May
Aimee Caitlin - In the UK, is Caitlin pronounced like "Katelyn" or "Kathleen"?
Amelia Grace
Cara Jayne
Cecily Mary** - prefer Cecilia Mary
Emma Jane*, Sam*, Harry
Esmee Fay - I love these two by themselves, and I still like this combo, but I think it rhymes a bit too much. Anyway, it's nice to see Esmee vs. Esme. Don't get me wrong: I love Esme, but Esmee is the feminine in France, not Esme (even though I acknowledge that Esme can be feminine as a nickname for Esmeralda).
Eva Elizabeth* - her sister's name is Elinor, which I like because of Sense and Sensibility, but being the pretentious, champion speller that I am, I still prefer Eleanor. By the way, do most people pronounce Eva like "Ava" or "Eve-uh?" I'm from a German family, and I have a cousin Eva, so I pronounce it like Ava, and I know Spanish speakers do too, but what about the rest of yall?
Katie Lucilla*, Sophie - yay Lucilla! I prefer Lucilla Katherine though.
Molly Alice*
Olivia Alexandra Caroline Limbrick* - is three middle names the new English trend since Americans have finally caught on to the idea of two middle names?

Ugh. You'd think that because of all the Celts in the area that it would be pronounced like "Kathleen"
EZ-mee? Wow, I thought they'd use the correct French pronunciation in the UK. EZ-mee sounds more like how Americans might pronounce it before Twilight came out.
