Re: Louisa
in reply to a message by Lily
I like Louisa. I think it sounds more mature than Ava and Olivia-- not mature like "old lady", but mature like "young adult" as opposed to "little kid".
I think Louise is still a filler middle name, and that might contribute to people not wanting to use Louisa as much.
I like both Luisa and Louisa, and I see them differently. I say Luisa with an "s" sound, and it's more of a pretty ethereal dancer type name. I say Louisa with a "z" sound and I think it sounds more grown-up and competent but just slightly less graceful.
Luisa and Louisa are both a lot better then Louise!!
I have a 30-something cousin named Louisa.
