Re: Hester
in reply to a message by guru
Although Heather suffers from the same sort of gustiness as Hester, it doesn't hiss bitterly like Hester seems to do, to me. The -ther pleases me more than the -ster. YMMV. Harper is not more appealing to me than Hester. Harper sounds like it's trying to be statusy, while Hester just sounds homely. But I guess Hester sounds better than Harper, because Harper reminds me of harpies.
