Re: Evelyn, Eleanor, and Elizabeth
in reply to a message by peonini
I like Elizabeth and Eleanor, but dislike Evelyn. To me it's so dumpy and I don't get its return to popularity.
To me, somehow Elizabeth, like Katherine, escapes the generic feeling of Mary and Jane, although all are popular classics. I think it's because I find Elizabeth and Katherine just more interesting visually and aurally.
Eleanor is fine, it's just not a big favorite of mine. It's way better than vanilla-pudding Wonder Bread Ellen, certainly.
Of the three, I like Elizabeth best.
Two of the three would work fine as siblings, but all three together is bordering on corny.
