Tanaquil
Pronunciation: https://forvo.com/word/tanaquil_le_clercq/Do you like it, or does it sound/look like an OTC medication to you? (I imagine that would be especially possible for Americans.)My father wanted to name me Tanaquil, after Tanaquil LeClercq. His mother founded a ballet company, and had met Tanaquil. He always thought her story was tragic and inspiring. Mom said absolutely not, too strange. ;)I'd love to use it, but my FI is pretty conservative when it comes to names. Maybe a middle name, as a tribute to my father/grandmother.For me, it passes the "Would you name yourself this?" test -- I'd love to be called Tanaquil. That said, who knows how I'd feel if I'd grown up with it. Growing up, I felt Fiona was weird enough.WDYT?
