Re: Sidney and Ravenna
in reply to a message by Ismene
I have only just begun to love Sidney more than Sydney; after finally admitting defeat to the gender-confusion problem that a boy Sydney would face.
But I have liked the sound of Sidney/Sydney for ages, Cindy never bothered me because it's never been a popular name around here, and certainly hasn't been heard of recently. I don't think Sid is an eventual nickname, definitely not enough to warrant it 90% of claim in my opinion! But this may be because I don't like Sid, so I would try harder to avoid it as an everyday nickname if I had a little Sidney.
Ravenna just seems OTT in my opinion. I find Raven a lot softer and more usable.
My constantly changing PNL:

Top rated = James / Henry and Alexander :)
Bottom rated = Kacey and Kim :(
