Re: Elizabeth & Charles
in reply to a message by erb816
Oh, without a doubt same here. She has reigned throughout the course of several generations. Suffice to say that TONS of people have never known any other monarch. This change is going to take adjusting to, especially for the family and to rest of the world.
I can't adjust to KING Charles. It's just...weird somehow. Plus, the dog breed always comes to mind. Hope no one minds me saying that. (Named after one of their ancestors undoubtedly)
That aside, I've always quite enjoyed the name Elizabeth. It may be overused and very mainstream, but it's also a solid classic. (And yes, lots of nn options as well). Charles (although certainly another strong and classic choice) I've always felt kinda neutral about. I mean it's alright, but I guess that I've always preferred the nn of Charlie more. Still, it's a lot better than the name Phillip/Phil, which I don't care for at all.
Elizabeth is certain to go up the charts (from both sides of the "pond", even by a smidge. In fact, I'll be surprised if it doesn't. Maybe even Alexandra & Mary as well) hard to say the deal for Charles.
