HelpRe: Deanna?
in reply to a message by Lou
Glad you're staying away from Daniela, Danielle etc. Daniel is too good to feminise; if I'd had a second son, he'd have been Daniel for sure.
Deanna ... seems very dated; I know one who's in her 70s, and that's it. I dislike Dean on a boy (and occupation names in general), and I find Anna flat and dull compared to the lighter and livelier Anne. So, no, I wouldn't go there.
I had a wonderful colleague once who was always known as Dee; she was actually named Dinah, which I like very much.
My suggestions for D- names would be:
Dinah
Daisy
Dorothy (or Dorothea)
Danica (a Dan name, but with such a lovely meaning!)
Deirdre
or even Deborah, which seems to be creeping back into use
