Help[Opinions] Re: Nona?
in reply to a message by Array
I like Nona and Nola. Nora is okay. Nola is a name of a character I'm devloping right now. Nona I used a few years ago. She was going to be a red-haired crime fighting vixen with a partner named Marmaduke, but the story, like most, never went anywhere. Nonie is awesome. The obvious fn for it (and Nona) I guess would be Ione or Iona. I remember people suggesting Leona, also.

You are absolutely brilliant.
o.o
How did you know to suggest Iona? I didn't even think of that, and I really love it--repeated exposure to Annie Potts in Pretty in Pink, y'know? I was thinking of Magnolia (though I still prefer Nola as a nickname for that).
I'm a huge fan of Nonie, since I grew up watching Pete and Pete. A fun fact that I never used to appreciate: Her father on the show was played by Iggy Pop, and he sang in an episode once. So Nonie-for-Nona-for-Iona brings together several of my favourite things in one name, hee.

I think Iona nn Nona or Noni is gorgeous (I prefer Noni to Nonie simply for familiarity - we have a celebrity here named Noni Hazlehurst who was often either a character in or a presenter of shows I watched as a kid).
