Re: Thoughts on Ethel?
in reply to a message by eglantine
My great grandmothers were Ethel and Esther. I thank God Ethel didn't die right before I was born, because I'd have been stuck with Ethel as a first name if she had. As it is, I'm stuck with Esther (I go by my middle name) which is plenty ugly enough, but even it pales in comparison to Ethel.
Ethel has such a heavy, thumping sound to it. It's so drab and dumpy and colorless. It's a sad, threadbare brown cardigan of a name.
Edna, however, is even worse, and that's saying something.
