Re: Maxine, Sherry, & Patience
in reply to a message by Princess Kenny
I don't mind Maxine- not something I'd ever use because I like other things better but I kind of like the 'butch' feel I get from it and I like the nicknames Max and Maxi. It seems like a super sporty name and I enjoy it. Much more than Maxima, which seems like they're trying to pretty up the butch.
Sherry - I think of alcohol
Patience - I don't mind the sound but I'm not sure I really see Patience as a virtue? It has it's place at times but it isn't like Verity (truth) or Prudence (wisdom), which are kind of universally applicable traits. I don't think people should be eternally patient. I also don't think anyone should be constantly impatient. Yeah. It is one of those names I can't get past the meaning because it's so blatant.
