Re: Constance
in reply to a message by Bex
Never heard of Constance Hall and I imagine most US people haven't either. But if she's really well-known in Australia it might give me pause. Actually, if it bothered me enough to mention it or consider it at all I wouldn't use it.
Constance Hall sounds like a name for a dormitory or something.
I think Constance is stiff and starched and unattractive and almost sounds like a brand name. Like for adult diapers or a laxative or something. Connie is mildly cute in a sock-hop, poodle-skirt sort of way.
