I love
Laura and
Ellen. Neither one is boring to me.
I'm warming up to
Deborah. It's one of those names that I like in full but dislike its nicknames.
Deborah has a completely different feel than
Deb or
Debby, imo. Fear of Deb/Debby would keep me from using it. I really like
Devorah, too.
Dev and
Devi don't grate on me the way
Deb and
Debby do.
Janet is the only one I dislike. I find it flat, dull, and dated. It makes me think of crows for some reason.
