Re: Maxine, Sherry, & Patience
The only one I can say I like is Sherry. My aunt's name is pronounced the same way but spelled Shari, and I like that spelling better. Hardly ever see it compared to Sherry.
Patience is a bit too storybook, but it's not awful.
Maxine is ugly. It sounds like something you spray on cuts to disinfect them, or onto furniture to keep it shiny.
I think, therefore I judge.
