Re: Merope
in reply to a message by Perrine
It is interesting! I wonder what it means (the BtN entry gives an etymology, but doesn't really explain what the name would mean).
I'd pronounce it with a rhythm more like Cherokee, than like Melanie (still a dactyl, but last syllable is stronger/longer). Otherwise I kinda lose the P and it sounds blah.
I don't love the way it sounds. I want the P to be a different letter. Like if it were Merophe - I'd like it better.
