Re: Monet
in reply to a message by Ashleigh
I think that I'd rather hear of a Claudia, because Monet just doesn't sound that pretty to me. Moreover, I've met a few Monets, and their parents haven't actually heard of the artist--they think it just 'sounds pretty', and that takes away a lot of the appeal to me.
I'd be more inclined to use first names of artists. Hmm...I wouldn't mind having a Rene (Magritte), Vincent (Van Gogh), Edgar (Degas), Claude (Monet), Georgia (O'Keefe), or Mary (Cassat)--though I have to admit, Cassat would be an interesting middle name for a boy.
