Re: Minerva vs. Matilda
in reply to a message by DLB
They'd not be confusing to me, soundwise or stylewise, if used for sisters.
The meanings both involve battle which isn't my fave...not a big deal at all but something I'd notice in a sibset.I think I'd pick Minerva because it sounds appealingly offbeat antique to me, similar to how Rowena, Marcella, Ursula do.
Matilda is similar but more used currently, sorta reminds me of Eleanor, Beatrice, Camilla, which is fine but not quite as snazzy to me.
I also just like saying Minerva IRL (I know one), but prefer saying Matilde to Matilda.
