Re: Clementine
in reply to a message by hylo
I used to love Clementine, but I feel like it's become somewhat predictable over the years. That may sound fatuous, since the name is not at all common, but I've come to regard it as a default quirky name.
I strongly prefer Clementina, and Clemency and Clemence sport the fresh charm with which Clementine once enchanted me.
However, I prefer Clementine to Charlotte, which I find stale. I wouldn't be surprised if Clementine eventually ascended the heights of popularity (as Charlotte has recently done).
For Clementine, I favor a trisyllabic middle name whose second syllable is accentuated: Clementine Susanna, Clementine Georgina, Clementine Jocasta, Clementine Augusta, Clementine Virginia, Clementine Sibylla, Clementine Venetia, Clementine Verena, Clementine Eulalie, Clementine Eugenie, etc.
