Re: WDYT of these name's I'd consider naming my (hypothetical) daughter?
in reply to a message by Tatsugiri
Ashe - It sounds masculine and the e will always be forgotten when people hear it and write it down and mispronounced when people read it with an e at the end. It feels incomplete to me.
Constance "Connie" - definitely seems old
Dorothea - I like the -thea part, but the Dor part makes it seem old-fashioned. I'd just go with Thea.
Juno - I first associate it with the movie about teen pregnancy
Liliana - very pretty
Maribelle - also pretty, but I'd prefer Maribel, Belle, or Mirabel
Rowan - I don't think it will age well. I think it's going to be pretty tied to around this time.
Yumi - I wouldn't use it unless I was Japanese and living in Japan. In and English speaking country, I don't think it will be easy for people to say, maybe once they've been taught, but it looks like yummy.
