HelpWinsome and Terrance/Terence?
What do you think of Winsome as a name? Winsome Earle-Sears, the Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, and her husband Terence made me think about the names.
Do you think Terence/ Terrance will make a comeback?
What are some word names that you like?
Edit: I misspelled the lieutenant governor's husband's name. It is Terence Sears.

My unapologetic and spectacular disregard for Winsome Sears' politics aside, I think the name Winsome sounds very masculine and don't care for it regardless.
I actually quite like Terence, and am not unalterably opposed to spellings like Terrance and Terrence. I don't care for the usual nicknames associated with Ter- names (Terry, etc.), though I don't think one has to use them.

I think Winsome could work as a name, but it's not my style. I also prefer the name Terrance over Terence, it looks handsome.
I don't think that Terrance would make a comeback soon, but who knows? 🙂
Some of my favorite English word names:
Acacia, Amethyst, Aurora, Autumn, Azure, Blessing, Bryony, Charity, Chase (male), Dahlia, Daisy, Dawn, Destiny, Diamond, Ebony, Faith, Genesis, Grace, Heather, Hope, Iris, Ivy, Journey, Liberty, Loyalty, Magnolia, Mahogany, Mercy, Misty, Orchid, Piper, Reverie, Rose, Sage, Sapphire, Secret, Serenity, Snowdrop, Solstice, Sunny, Temperance, Topaz, Tulip, Unity, Vogue, Winter, Zinnia
Partly word names:
Angela, Birdie, Honora, Nevaeh, Princessa, Queenie, Sevyn, Skye, Stormi

Winsome lose some, Winsome is an L.
I like Terrence, I can see it coming back around eventually, probably not anytime soon though…I don’t like the nickname Terry.

I actually think Winsome is sweet. I don't think I'd name a real person that, but would fit well for a character or pet.

Terrance is unexpected: whatever happened to Terence? I don't mind Terence, but it's unlikely to retain that form. A friend's wife was pregnant and I asked the obvious question: what will you name the baby? They chorused "Terry", and I said "And if it's a girl?". Still in chorus, they said "Terry" and I was silenced. For the record, she's Terry Ellen, Ellen after a grandmother.
Winsome really doesn't appeal to me one bit. Not a quality I esteem, and Win or Winnie aren't favourites either.
