HelpRe: Bash my girls names
in reply to a message by dorothy
Susan is profoundly a middle-aged white woman name. It does the same thing as Karen for me, except a little worse, because I do know some younger girls named Karen. The same cannot be said for Susan.
Maisie is cute, but it's also my dog's name. Be prepared for mispronunciation, no matter if you pronounce it MAY-zee or MAY-see. And people will always argue that you're pronouncing or spelling your own child's name wrong. And the spelling and name seem too cutesy for a grown woman or teenager.
Ada's cute, but grandmotherly. Doesn't really have any nickname potential.
Ophelia. "Isn't that the girl who drowned herself?" Very quirky. I love the name, but be prepared for your child to be called weird.
Margaret is another grandmother name. The r followed by the g and then another g is just not a very pretty sound. This was my great grandmother's name (she spelled it Margrete.) I just don't find it stylish in the slightest.

Elaborate on Ophelia being the 'girl who drowned herself'?
