Re: Amy
in reply to a message by Belle
Well, I love the name, myself. There've been all sorts of great Amys in the world--Amy March of Little Women, Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls, me...:D It's a good name, and despite the fact that I was born in 1987, I was the only Amy in my grade up until college. So it's quite possible that your hypothetical Amy could be, too.
Amy Juliet~ I really dislike Juliet.
Amy Beth~ A tidge too Little Women, if you'll believe that. If I was going that route, I'd go with Amy Josephine!
Amy Violet~ It sounds fine, but it doesn't have quite the right spark for me personally.
Amy-Rose~ I'm not a fan of this, mainly because Rose feels so filler-y. I like hyphenated and double names, though.
Amy Rhiannon~ I dislike Rhiannon, but it flows.
Amy Rachel~ This is very similar to my name, Amy Rae! I rather like it, but I prefer my version. ;)
Some Amy combos I can stand (though, honestly, I'm of the opinion that Amy Rae is the tops):
Amy Lorraine
Amy Jean (my sister calls me this, because Jean's her middle name--so I call her Sara Rae, heh)
Amy Quinn
Amy Shoshana
Amy Lucinda
Amy Ophelia
Amy Harriet
Amy Serena
Amy Teresa
Amy Viola
Amy Pandora
Amy Jewel
Amy Esther
Amy Fern
I prefer it with shorter names, on the whole. Trying to fancify it with something long makes it sound false to me--I wouldn't be able to get behind Amy Juliana, for example.

Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie
