Re: Addison for a boy
in reply to a message by Elaine
Even if it's on a boy, it still seems very new-yuppie-whiny to me. Here is why it bugs me, and if you don't follow this reasoning please discount it: It began as a practical label for someone who was the son of an Adam, to prevent confusion. And therefore it seems really pointless and silly just to use it for its sound. Plus the sound isn't that appealing to me, and it's pretty feminine anyway (which is okay and all.)
I can see the religious argument "my son is a son of Adam!" and it's better on a boy than a girl, and Addison Jude is good. But in general, I would be disdainful of it.
