Re: Io
in reply to a message by Pickles
I don't know what you mean by heifer comparisons.
One of my teachers had a baby girl last year and named her Io. I think it's an intriguing and appealing name, but I wouldn't use it myself because the spelling is insubstantial and there's very little nickname potential. And no consonants! Although I kinda like that, it's fun. Io's older sister is named Liana, which I prefer.
If we're gonna go for Greek mythology, might as well go the whole nine yards with the middle name.
Io Calliope
Io Hestia
Io Persephone - my favorite
Io Thalia
Io Zoe - this would make a good sci-fi name I think
LISTEN TO THE MUSTN'TS
- Shel Silverstein
Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child,
Listen to the DON'TS
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS
The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me—
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
