Re: Leaf
in reply to a message by )(
Leaf seems unexpectedly boring.
Also, it reminded me of Joaquin Phoenix, «who went by the name Leaf in his younger years».By the way, I didn't know that he is khwa-KEEN, not kho-a-KEEN.Anyway I've got two questions:
• is Leaf worse than Peaches, Pebbles, Flower?
• what do you think of Liv?

Leaf is preferable to Peaches and Pebbles, but not to Flower.I like Liv well enough - it's less slimy than Olivia - but it's not a name I think about often. Rather flimsy

Leaf is not as bad as Peaches or Pebbles. Not nearly!
It's about as bad as Flower.
I pronounce Liv like the second syllable in Olivia, and I like it.
I have to try hard to say Liv as "leaf" so for that reason I don't feel like I like it, but it's fine.That pronunciation of Joaquin, btw, is how I learned to say San Joaquin Valley when I grew up in California. It's pretty normal there, I think, at least among people whose first language is English.
