Re: Nickname for William
in reply to a message by queenv
I prefer Will SO SO SO SO much. I really don't care for Bill. It sounds like... I don't know, someone who would come to your door selling life insurance.
I read a book once where a William was nicknamed Wim, and I kind of like that.

Ok, so I do remember what book it was, or at least the author, but I wasn't going to mention it because I am ashamed of myself.
... I read it in a Danielle Steel book. She is one of the most pretentious writers of drivel I've ever read, so it's no surprise a name she uses on a character seems affected.

I've only ever read parts of her books ...
A long long time ago and I don't get how she's been so successful. If I recall, she doesn't even do good sex scenes.

She doesn't do sex scenes! It's like "and then, over the faberge egg, Philip looked at Victoria, saw the Tiffany necklace sparkling at her throat, and said, 'oh I love you, my darling. I know we've just met at Spago and I know we've only had one night together at the Ritz, but I love you darling. I do.'" And then we leave the room and they have very expensive sex we don't know about.
oh, yeah, she's a name-dropper
Or a brand-name dropper, actually.
Be more interesting if they did something kinky with the Faberge egg, wouldn't it?
