Re: Ruby and Rhiannon?
in reply to a message by Elianora
Not too close for twins... not a fan of Rhiannon (it's not very attractive to me)... Guess I'm not a fan of Mildred either, but it's not so bad as a mn and for all I know you could be honouring a grandma or aunt.
Ruby and Rhiannon both have a bit of a trendy feel right now, but Ruby's ok 'cause it's otherwise solid. Rhiannon feels like it's popped up out of nowhere in the past few years and became a little trendy. Of course, if they went by their mns, they could escape that issue if you really like the names and wish to use them. (then people won't be going "oy vey... another set of parents thought they'd start their kids' names w/ the same letter" on account of them being unaware of the matter). Frances could go by nn Frankie. I usually don't like a lot of the "y/ie" nns, but for some reason, I like Frankie on a girl. Mildred could go by Millie if Mildred seems too old for a little girl, but Mildred could grow on a person.
