Re: Juliet
in reply to a message by Perrine
I adore Juliet and would use this in a heartbeat. I think it's actually my #1 at the moment (or at least for today).
Re: being too tragic, I don't think so. I've considered this and came to the conclusion that if classmates ever teased her with, "Where's your Romeo?" then there are plenty of worse insults out there. OTOH, if she hated it, she could always go by the ever-friendly Julie (although I don't love it).
Re: spelling, I prefer the look of Juliet, however, I'd definitely use Juliette with a French surname. It seems more harmonious to my way of thinking.
