HelpRe: Winter
in reply to a message by lusia
I dislike it ... it sounds gothier than Raven or Ember.
I think it's much less annoying when it's spelled Wynter, because then it looks more like a surname-derived name or something, it's namey and not so evocative of darkness and cold and dormancy and bleak landscapes and that slightly endangered feeling of being driven together in warm places.
Okay, so I hate it a little bit less now that you made me think about it. But it's nms. Still too dark and desperate. I like Summer as a name.
I'd rather call someone Winter than Winnie, I guess because of the word whinny. Winnie isn't awful but it just sounds dorky to me.
