Re: Prudence

I can imagine Prudence as a stylish woman in the 1940s. Or a millennial with lots of tattoos.
I think it's the type of name that could seem cool on someone I liked and unfortunate on someone I didn't.
I prefer Prudence to Constance, but I think I prefer Temperance to Prudence. It's about like Patience but more prim and somehow also rougher.

My main association is "Dear Prudence": either the Siouxsie and the Banshees or the Across the Universe version.
I think I might be associating Pluto, more distantly...considering I'm basically seeing the colors that are on Breakfast on Pluto posters.
Also, I'm reminded of jurisprudence and Prunella (self-heal).
