HelpRe: Rachel or Rebecca? (more)
in reply to a message by Perrine
I prefer Rebecca.
I've known so many Rachels, and a lot of them have been either nice and likable or at least unoffensive. However, some of them, and not a small percentage, have been absolutely horrid. I associate Rachel with judgmental, mean, dogmatic people because of this. In addition to this, I'm not too into the sound. Plus, I group it in with Sarah, Hannah, and Matthew, all of which bore me to tears.
Rebecca is elegant, classic, and it has a pretty sound. The fact that basic white girls are now referred to as "Beckys" has slightly put me off, but I don't like Becky, Becca, or Reba anyway.
I remember hearing of someone, when I was like 8 years old, named Rebecca Susan, and it like full body struck me as the loveliest combo and I was so jealous it wasn't my name. I was a really early name nerd.
