Re: Star?
in reply to a message by pangurban
First of all, Estelle is gorgeous.
But, I think Star is the sort of nickname that doesn't need a related name for it to be a nickname - it's more of a personality nickname. Like, Margaret nn Star, or Sarah nn Star, because the girls themselves feel like Stars. Estelle nn Star actually feels a little cutesy, because it feels more planned out ahead of time (still awesome though! I like it).
Other starry names: Astraea, Asteria, Nova, Celestine.
Other names that sound starry to me but not actually star-related: Elsa, Odilia, Tatiana.

Isn't it ^_^ I've loved Estelle for years.
I guess... I would rather have the excuse of having a similar-to-Star real name, though. Because I wouldn't want the connection to be a "little star" connection over the celestial stars connection.
I like Celestine! I hadn't heard that before. Tatiana is nice too, and Elsa does sound kind of starry. Odilia is unfortunately one of my great dislikes ;)
Thanks for replying :)
