Re: Tilly and June
in reply to a message by Shiply
Juniper Faith nn June or Juni: Juniper is just silly to me, like trying way too hard to be cutesy and fantasy-novel. Juniper Faith sounds like a silly literary euphemism for being dependent on gin. June is very nice and I think having it be a nn for Juniper lessens its dignity.
Matilda Brooke nn Tilly: Very Hollywood tryndee, and I think Matilda is ugly anyway. Tilly sounds like a flaky old lady who is easy prey to every scam artist to come through town.
Everett Charles: Nice.
Bowen Piper: Piper is a silly little-girl name to me,and doesn't at all fit well with Bowen. Bowen Piper sounds like some musical instrument.
