[Opinions] Re: Percival vs Ignatius
in reply to a message by Bex
I like both Ignatius and Percival but I prefer Percival nn Percy because it feels more down to earth and approachable. I also like the nn Pip for Percival. In my country Percy is not a slang term as in seems to be in Australia and the UK but I wonder is it anymore of a slang term than the name Peter? Because Peter is a slang term for the male anatomy but that wouldn't keep me from using the name Peter if I loved it.I've always considered Ignatius more of a good mn rather than a good fn since it is a very serious and steely sort of name. Also just like you said I don't love Iggy, I don't hate Iggy it is just okay and I worry that Ignatius is too much of a name. As someone else said Nate might work as a nn for Ignatius but it is a little bit of a stretch.Does Stewart need to be the second mn or could it be the first of two mns? Something about saying Stewart just before your surname sounds off to me, I prefer it as the first mn. I think my favorite combo here rearranged would be Percival Stewart Francis A. or Percival Stewart Ignatius A. Having Stewart come before Ignatius makes the combo seem less like a HP reference, I forgot that Percy's mn was Ignatius until people mentioned it.
