Re: Daphne
in reply to a message by Elemmennope
I love Daphne and have ever since I was little--the names of all the characters on Scooby Doo appeal to me. Even Shaggy (if only as a nickname!). I don't think it's been climbing terribly fast, but I wouldn't necessarily say it's going to stay that way. It's a two-syllable name ending in E--sort of the thinking person's Kaylee. ;)
I don't think it's going to be the next Ava, but given how well received similar names (Daisy, for example) are, I don't think it's going to remain especially obscure. It's sort of a sleeper hit, much as I hate the phrase. Daphne is familiar but mostly unused.
Elsa, I've liked ever since a woman on another board mentioned it was her daughter's name. It's harder to warm up to, but it's another nice one. Elsa Daphne sounds quite nice, especially with the nickname Elsie! :)

Your never ending spree of death and violence and hate

I'd like to leave the world as a better place.
