HelpRe: Edna and Dolores
in reply to a message by Array
I like Edna, but I'm not a fan of Ed or Eddie as NNs at all! Edie would be nice, though.
I don't love Dolores, but I don't mind it. It's my aunt's name, so I do have the picture of a sweet, spunky older woman with it. It's also my middle-aged cousin's name (for her mother, naturally), and she goes by Dolly. I honestly don't really like Dolly at all, though, since it reminds me of Parton and the cloned sheep. Dory / Dori would be nice, though. My personal favorite Dolores incarnation in my family would be my mother, who took it as her confirmation name in honor of (you guessed it) my aunt, who was her sponsor. My mother's full name is the cumbersome but (imo) incredibly charming Aurelia Mary Dolores. :)
