Re: Lucy vs. Louise
in reply to a message by pike
I adore Lucy; sound/visual; the way I can see it as youthful and sweet or bright, confident and take-charge, so it ages well for me; and the meaning appeals to me also.
I respect Louise and think it's a perfectly nice name, but I don't really care for the sound; it's not the "ise" itself, as I enjoy Eloise, but the sound and blend of the "ou" into the "ise" that my ear doesn't enjoy and also reminds me of "wheeze".
