Re: River
in reply to a message by Pelops
Is it? I think of liver and reaver and 'lazy river', if I dig for associations other than the obvious. And there's a tropical storm right now, so I'm thinking of floods, not very ingratiating.
I could call someone that without thinking of those things, but I like Oliver and Rivka better. Or unisex, Sky. Skylark even. Or Robin...
Although I feel a connection to River because my last name is river based, so maybe I would ultimately prefer it.
Robin as masculine would seem kind of warm and ingratiating, to me, but overall I like it. Maybe they're a similar style, along with Rowan: the two-syllable unisex wordy nature names beginning with R group.
