HelpRe: Is Maurine redeemable in today’s naming culture, or still sound too dated?
in reply to a message by jonesilove
It's definitely not in style, hasn't been for a very long time. I only ever knew two and one was a very old lady when I met her and is surely gone now. The other is probably five years older than me.
In sound and rhythm it's not in style, but it is Irish and Irish names are generally in style now, like Liam and Aiden and all the Caitlin variations. And it's soft, like Mia and Aria.
So I think it is still redeemable. It's kind of got a sad feel to it, I don't know why.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
