Re: Justine
in reply to a message by guru
I've never seen Melancholia, so these will have to be my pre-viewing thoughts.
Justine is elegant, sophisticated, and smart. I picture a Justine as very self-posessed, full of a sort of steely-eyed confidence, and sensual too. There's something sexy about Justine. It's a strong name.
There's no way I'll have enough daughters to ever use Justine, but it remains on my extended list, just outside of my top 10. I really love it.
As an aside, Justine is one of the rare cases where I love the feminine version of a name while really disliking the masculine form (Antonia is the other). Justin is just insipid.
