Re: Would a little Jemima be teased terribly in the U.S.?
in reply to a message by Megan
My first thought was Jemima Puddleduck, and it's a pretty strong connection. I never thought of the racist connotation Eilis mentioned, and I haven't heard of the syrup, but both of those are primarily American I think and I'm in the UK. Having said all that, Jemima has a sound that's coming into style. With Madeline, Isabelle, Eleanor and Charlotte all in vogue, Jemima isn't too much of stretch. In another couple of years it could work.
