Re: WDYTO...Alice
I think I'm the only one on these boards that hates Alice. I just don't get it - it has the word 'lice' in it and rhymes with mice, vice etc. And while I usually like 'old grandma' names, Alice is one I think should stay on a grandma. I also usually like short names, but Alice is not anything special, nor is it pretty. It's so simple to the point where it's bland and dull. ABOVE ALL, however, I really dislike the sound of it.

um... so yeah it may read 'lice'... but when its said, it is supposed to be sad 'Al-liss'... so maybe thats why its liked?

In my accent (and I think in most accents?) the -lice is like "liss", not lice/mice/vice.
