Re: Virgil
in reply to a message by Mar
Can I ask you what particularly about Virgil makes it seem like a "nerd" name to you? :-) I'm just interested because to me it gives an impression of the exact opposite. I personally find it only cool, kinda sexy and appealing because of the way it looks and sounds. But I do agree with you there that Vergilius is still much better.

Uhm... Haven't thought that one. I think it's because it sounds (and looks) almost like virgin and the only letter that's different fromit is an L and I don't see that as a masculine letter. Come to think of it, there are no letters in it that make it sounds strong and masculine to me the V is a soft sweet sound. the I is not a 'powerful' letter and the name ends in -gil that might sound girlish because of Jill. I think masculine letters are T K C (pr. K) G (like in Gray, not Gin) A (when pr. ay) D R . The V L I G (gin) E N. Does this makes sense to you at all ?
edit: Vergilius the -us ending is very masculine and strong to me
To my sweet muse
Every time you rip my heart out
Every time you break it
I pick up the pen I hold in my hands
And write the most beautiful poems
But you know what
If it's alright by you
I'd rather be happy than a poet
