Re: Archaic American female names
I think they'd have to be older than 30-40ish to count as archaic. Capitola - better than Houses of Parilament, but still not remotely good or even human-sounding
Dusti - as in Springfield, but with an i replacing the y for trendiness? Unattractive; good for Cinderella perhaps
Francisquita - mishmash
Icy - what a chilling life sentence
Leighann - actually OK, though I prefer Leigh without the Ann
Mahogany - hard, dense wood used for furniture? And the stressed syllable is Hog. Not a good idea
Pluma - sounds slightly like Luna; plume and plumage are unfortunate associations
Raeann - sounds like an upmarket version of rayon
Vianey - odd attempt to lengthen Annie? Merger between Violet and Annie? Sounds like a placename: Vianey Junction, closed for repairs
