Re: Alma
in reply to a message by xPrincess27x
I have a great aunt (b. 1935) named Alma Audrey, and I've always admired her name. Alma has such a sweet sound and seems so calm and intelligent.
Alma does have a tinge of "old lady" to her, but it won't surprise me at all if it's being rediscovered today, à la Hazel, Estelle, and Vivian. I think it's usable.
If anyone's interested, here's Alma Audrey's sibset, all born mid-to-late 1920s to mid-to-late 1930s:
Vivian Ola
Rodney James
Frances June
Norman Edward
Alma Audrey
Mary Ann, "Petunia"
A lot of these wouldn't look out of place on a hipster BA of today.
