Re: Lily, Maia or Eilonwy? (more)
in reply to a message by Perrine
I dislike Lily for its repeated sounds like baby-babble, its slimy feel in the mouth, its reference to drooping white flowers associated with funerals ...
I like Eilonwy, but I don't consider it usable as a fn outside Wales. As a mn, yes!
I like Maia a lot. May is a family name, but it doesn't appeal to me half as much as Maia; I like the Latin meaning, and especially the little German TV bee!
