Help[Opinions] Re: Scottish place names as given names, wdyt?
in reply to a message by Elinor
I knew there was more! we could probably go on for ages lol.
How on earth did I forget Fife? It's even on my pnl.
That's the problem with place names, they might sound nice but have bad associations for people who actually know them!
I like Leith...despite the place lol. Same with Girvan, and Erskine. and don't you think Linlithgow has a ring to it? I was thinking of putting Govan in, but that was just a step too far...!
hmm Croy why not?! It's just Roy with a c after all :-/
I like Elgin, Lunan and Cullen although it reminds me of cullen skink. Roslin looks like a variant spelling of Roslyn, I'm sure somebody has already used it without knowing the place. Crieff just makes me think of good grief!
