Re: Julie, Juliana, Juliet or Julia? (more)
in reply to a message by Perrine
I really like them all, however, I'd rank them:
Juliet: I've never known a soul with this name. The Shakespeare association used to put me off until I began to think if the worst thing that could be said to a Juliet is, "Where's your Romeo?" then there are a lot worse names out there.
Juliana: This has an old-world feel to it as well as being very soft and feminine sounding. It also has excellent nn options if so desired.
Julie: Julie is so outgoing and friendly.
Julia: Even though I like Julia, I've known a few who were snobbish or arrogant or just flat-out unkind so I do have negative associations with Julia. Still, that's my issue and Julia should work fine for you.
