Re: Phoebe
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
I like Phoebe. I have a fondness for names that end in that "bee" sound.
I think Phoebe has a lot of similarities with Chloe and Ruby and I'm surprised it's not more popular. I'm not sure if it's because of the wackiness of the Friends character. It is creeping up pretty slowly I suppose.
Like Ruby and Chloe, though, I think Phoebe suffers from a "perpetual youth into dotty old lady" thing; it's great on a very young person and a very old person, but it's hard to imagine a Phoebe that is 30 to 70 years old, in a position of authority. At least it is for me.
Phoebe Diana is beautiful; it's very moonlike.
