HelpRe: What do you think about the fashion of adding "y", "k", "x" to names to make them sound more unique and exotic?
in reply to a message by Namaide
It would have been unique in the 50s. It's too trendy to be considered unique or different and those who are considering the names for those reasons should look elsewhere.
Mostly they look like an eyesore to me, but some are ish passable. I'm not sure which ones off the top of my head, but these are probably forms of very uncommon names anyway and therefore their normal spellings are not widely known anyway.
I can't help but feel like the people who think it's cool and different are channelling their inner six year old

Well consider me corrected lmao I wasn't aware the practice was around then... though I assume more to do with honouring than kre8tiv? I mean many Victorians (and beyond) didn't know how to spell and I'm just going to assume Caryl was named after grandma whose name drifted between spellings as they often did back then
(but I could be totally wrong)
