Re: Mercedes & Therese
in reply to a message by Orla.
Other than ending with an 's' sound, I don't find them similar.
Therese/Theresa seems very wholesome and subtly mother earthy. If I were going to put the goddess Demeter in a more modern setting, I would call her Theresa.
Mercedes brings to mind cars and "The Count of Monte Cristo." Two very different associations that are a bit jarring when paired.
