Re: Susan vs. Karen
in reply to a message by Starfish and Coffee
I knew one Karen and one Susan "Susie", liked them both.
I'd never use Karen for a daughter because it's become synonymous with petty outrage, but I like that name more than Susan. Karen is tidy and gentle. Susan sounds both too proper and like a dog name (I have come across 3+ dog Susie's, one of them being my sister's). I'd rather compromise and use Sharon.
Karen Willow
Karen Angela
Karen Amalia
Karen Silvia
Susan Philippa
Susan Dorothea
Susan Clare
Susan Penelope
Sharon Melody
Sharon Altagracia
Sharon Talya
Sharon Tova
Sharon Adela
Sharon Demetra
Susan Rosemary Adela
Susan Demetra Melody*
Susan Philippa Clare
Susan Willow Dorothea
Susan has siblings Peter and Lucy.
Karen has siblings Janet and Toby.
They are pretty interchangeable.
