HelpRe: Linda or Erika (more)
in reply to a message by Perrine
Linda
1. My initial impression of Linda is that it sounds like a middle-aged woman with a secretarial job (I get a similar impression from Nancy and Jeanine, except Linda seems friendlier or more easygoing).
2. I think it could work for a child, but I'd prefer it as a NN, maybe for Rosalinda or something like that.
3. lemons, yellow and green
4. When imagining a child called Linda...she's sweet but maybe wishy-washy, likes botany (a quiet blonde girl who collects plants or pressed flowers).
Erika
1. I think of the Erika I know: blonde, blue-eyed, statuesque, extroverted, late 20s
2. I prefer the Erika spelling; it looks stronger or more complete to me
3. red clay, deep blue
4. Imagining a child called Erika...she's spunkier and more solemn than Linda, maybe a tad brattish; she likes music and her favorite school subject is math.
I'd pick Erika, if forced to choose; I like it more as a stand-alone name, probably because it seems younger or livelier.
