HelpRe: Jack, Henry, or Oliver
in reply to a message by Martha
Oliver, because I've just always liked the sound of it. It doesn't hurt that I prefer the meaning, and it feels brighter than Henry though not necessarily Jack.
Henry's respectable but feels cliche to me in a stuffy-monotonous way.
I don't mind the sound of Jack, but it annoys me stylistically because of Stonewall Jackson and lumberjacks. It screams look how ordinary and traditional and strong I am...and my reaction's like, why are you screaming; Joe is quieter, John is steadier, and Jay is more fun to be around. Also it feels vaguely 90s-00s fangirlish (Jack Dawson, Jack Sparrow).
