Re: Thoughts on Cypress?
in reply to a message by nate_h
The -ess at the end is not a feminine suffix, but looks very much so, so I can really see it on a girl only. I love the look and sound of the word, just not sure about it as a name. It's still too out there, but it could easily grow on me if it becomes more common. I love similar sounding Cyrus and like Cyprian (mostly the Cypr- part, -ian is not my favorite ending for boy names).
