Re: Bronte & Edith
I like the Bronte sisters very much (even wrote an essay about them in secondary school), but I prefer their first names to their surname. Bronte is too close to Brunte, which is a common name in Sweden for a horse (I guess it's derived from the word for brown, brun). Edith is nice, it sounds sophisticated, and I like Swedish-speaking Finnish poet Edith Södergran (1892 - 1923) who wrote beautiful poems and who died from tuberculosis.Does the sea exist
