10 Things I Hate About you....

---

I used to hate it due to that movie and the sound of the name wasn't pleasant.

---

However, its starting to grow on me, and if it wasn't so popular I'd probably give it a thought. But I'm not completely convinced and with it's popularity, I won't even try it out.

I really dislike Bianca -- it sounds harsh and even uncouth and a tad tawdry to me.

---

Blanche, on the other hand, I adore.

Bianca is a name I think of often but don't like enough to put on my name list.

---

I love to see it on other people. I like the name's image in my head, which is a punky / preppy chick who likes to pair pleated plaid skirts with fishnet tights and dock martin boots.

---

I think the only reason it's not on my list is that I prefer unmistakably feminine names on girls. I don't think Bianca is masculine at all, but it has a stately sound that is not my style, sort of like Millicent or Bernadette. I like the idea of both names and even had Millicent on my name list once, but removed it because never in a million years would I actually use it on a child of mine.

I like it. It's sort of quiet and sweet and very Shakespeare.

I like Bianca. It's definitely in my top 3 for my next kitten. ;-)

I want to like it, but i get a snobby vibe from it, so this keeps me from liking it.

Well, it's got some good things going for it- pretty sound, not too popular. I've only met one in my whole life. But it isn't my style- to be honest it gives me kind of a snooty vibe, so I wouldn't use it. But I don't think it's a bad choice for someone else.

It's kind of nice and not overused... Could be refreshing to see a little Bianca... Think I've prob'ly met a total of 1... It's not way out there, but it's recognized as a normal and respectable name... could be good.
