Re: BBC young musician competitors 2024
in reply to a message by peregrine
Alasdair - It's a decent name, but reminds me of a namesake for the name Alastair, and I don't like that.
Alicia - It's an elegant name, but it sounds a bit young... then again the young names of today will sound older in 40 years.
Defne - I'm not a huge fan. It seems more like how a kid would expect Daphne to be written.
Finn (g) - I've never really liked the name Finn, and have always thought it seems more like a nickname.
Hugo - A classic, mature-sounding name. I like it! but I wouldn't name my child Hugo, but maybe an original character.
Jacky (b) - I like Jacky as a girl's name, but not so much as a boy's.
Jamaal - The name Jamaal always makes me crave Baskin Robbin's Jamoca Almond Fudge... and that's a good thing!
Kaelyn - A pretty name! It feels a bit more empty than Kaitlyn, but I still really like it.
Maya - Reminds me of Maya Rudolph. I like the name Maya, but it's not my favorite.
Rose - I've never been the biggest fan of flower names, but Rose is pretty! Very elegant, and feels both formal and informal at the same time. Ponus points if it's spelt Rosé!
Ryan - For a boy or a girl? Either way, it's good! It feels young on a boy, but that's not a huge problem.
Shlomi - Behind the name doesn't have a page for the name, so I am unsure if it's masculine or feminine. Either way, I'm not a big fan, but you do you!
