Re: Iskra & Tesni
in reply to a message by vigdis
Iskra and Tesni would be great for cats. If I met a child named Iskra, I'd assume the parents were rabid old-style communists, I'd think there might be another sibling named Lenina or something.
There are plenty of names I like but wouldn't use, namely because they're not easy enough or would sound too weird in Italian. Or, for instance, I like Ligeia, but the EA Poe association is too strong and kind of creepy. Same goes for Ophelia-lovely name, but who wants a daughter named after a character who goes crazy and drowns herself?
