Re: Purdey
in reply to a message by Katie
Purdey seems unfortunate.
I like Arabella. I used to think it was too prim, and that the Arab in it was too strong, until my daughter had an Arabella in her class and it seems really as nice and ordinary as Elizabeth. Annabelle is far more prim and frilly and annoying, than Arabella.
Allegra is nice as well and I don't care about the allergy medication.
Myrtle is terminally ugly and I don't get it at all except as a hipster "fungly" thing. I sure wouldn't want to be named a name that sounds like Murdle in my accent and rhymes hurtle, turtle, fertile, curdle, girdle.
