Re: WDYT of Mary? (m)
in reply to a message by Sadie
1. What do you think of Mary? Too old? Too boring?
-- I like it quite a lot. It has a nice, dated vibe that makes it a little off in this day and age. At the same time, no one can consider it odd. So, I like it.
2. Do you like the nn Molly?
-- I like Mary better.
3. If someone plans to use only a nn (like Molly), should they just name the child the nn?
-- It really depends on the nn. Molly is basically an established name on its own now, so if you plan to call the girl Molly, I say use Molly. But if, say, you wanted to call her Dell, I would make her formal name Adele or Adella. Does that make sense?
4. Do you like the combo Mary Elizabeth? This is one I'd probably consider using, as it's a family name that's special to me.
-- It is nice, though boring for my tastes.
5. What's a good name for a sister?
-- Helen, Susan, Sandra, Danielle, Tamsin, Georgia, Lily, Audrey, Charlotte, Lydia, Claire, Norah
Arcadia
It's just an object
It doesn't mean what you think
