Re: Narciso, Daffodil and Jonquil
in reply to a message by Felie
Narciso has a kind of snappy, slithery viper quality to it, which I don't like. Narcissus has the same quality but more so.
Jonquil is one of those words/names that I think I know how to pronounce but anytime I say it, I'm like: Wait, was that right?
I agree Jonquil is very feminine though. And Junko is one of my favorite Japanese names.
Daffodil has been a favorite of mine for a while. Of course, it's pretty out-there and would be weird as a name... but I like some weird names. It does have a masculine quality to it, but overall I think it's very androgynous. It's also very comedic and fantastical to me, in a warm way, like "whipoorwil" or "will-o-the-wisp". Daffy and Dilly are cutesy and funny.

"Speak the truth; yield not to anger; when asked, give even if you only have a little."
"Live alone and do no evil; be carefree like an elephant in the elephant forest."
