Invented name Nalis, thoughts?
Hi all! It’s been a bit since I was on here :) I’ve been kicking this name around for a while, so I thought I’d get some outside perspectives. Nalis is a name I’m using for a character of mine, it’s derived from a longer fake name that got shortened via nickname in-universe (she used to go by the scientific name for a plant, so it comes from Officinalis), but I’ve basically just used it as a solo, stand-alone name for a while.Anyway, I was wondering if it sounded like a real name, or if it just sounds too random or like it’s clearly a clipped version of a longer name. Or just, what do you all think of it as a proper name in general :D______________________________________________
