Re: Daphne, Doreen, Carol & Patricia
in reply to a message by Canielle
Oh I love Daphne, deeply. I went to school with a Daphne and her name was probably one of the reasons I became a name nerd. It was so amazing to me! A name from Greek mythology, on a real person! It felt to special, almost magical. Daphne has kept a special place for me ever since.
I have a great aunt Doreen too! Doreen is such a perfect great aunt name. It feels quaint and cozy and kind.
Carol is all right. Carol Anne as a double name was one of my longtime faves, and I still like it. I could probably get into Carol, I do admire it, but Caroline is my true love.
Patricia is beautiful and stern, and I like the idea of Patty or Patsy, but I'm less thrilled with Trisha - I knew too many of those. Trish is cute though.
