HelpRe: Disa and Valentine
in reply to a message by Uilos
I kinda of like Disa. Never heard it before.
I prefer Valentine as masculine. It sounds really manly to me - I think of the word valiant.
I can also see it as feminine, but in a more superficial way, based on cheesy associations with Valentine's Day and the similarity to Valerie and Caroline. I prefer Valentina as a feminine name, though. If Valentine's pronounced -een, which I kind of assume it is in Sweden, it seems feminine.
I'm not thrilled by the combo with Disa - something about the sounds just doesn't appeal to me aesthetically. The combo needs an M, J, or R to ground it, or maybe to repeat the D or S. But it's not bad.
