HelpRe: Prisciana
in reply to a message by Fiammetta
Interesting. Kind of pretty, although I like Priscilla and Prisca more.
How would you pronounce the sci part? I would waver between "ski" and "see" and "she" and wait to hear it.
I think it's only acceptable to ask a stranger about their name tag, if you begin by giving an enthusiastic and sincere compliment, and see whether they seem to signal that they have time or interest chat about it, or if they seem skeptical and kind of give you a brush-off.
"What a gorgeous name!"
"Oh thank you it's after my grandma!" [smile] vs "oh, thanks" [looking busy]
