Re: Millicent +
Love.I like Melicent / Mellicent even more, because you can't get "Millie" from it. Anyway, it's more authentic to me because the M_L part is from the same root as AMELIA. Millicent looks like it means "one thousandth of a cent"Can't stomach Melisande.

That's it! One thousandth of a cent. You are so right, another thing that it reminds me. Why I want to like it, but it reminds me of too many things that it's not and just leaves me feeling a little confused.

Oh my God, you've just made me realise what it is about this name that I don't like, it actually does sound like a thousandth of a cent! Now I can't see anything else

And now you've made me realize it's why I don't like the name MILLIE!
A "millie" feels like a disappearingly small fraction among 999 other disappearingly small fractions. It's so extremely cute, that I lost it.

So true. We have to use milli Q water in the science labs which is just like really pure water, and that's all I can think about now
