Re: Augusta
in reply to a message by Billina
In theory, I love it. It's beautiful and has a great history. When I hear it in real life, though, I can't help but find it incredibly pretentious and overwrought.
I've known two young Augusta's. The first ones by I
Aggie, the second went by Gussy. The first just had a brother named Giovanni. I have to say the sibling set of Augustina and Giovanni is pretty cool. The second set is ridiculous. Robert nn Bert, Bauer, Aurora, Augusta, and Agatha.
I also knew an older woman named Mary Augusta. She wasa captain in the army and an incredibly strong, intelligent woman. she normally just went by Mary however her brother always insisted on calling her Mary Augusta. All I could picture when you called her that was a little girl in a white dress with pigtails. It was so ridiculous. I'm thinking that she would have been born in the 1920s, to a upper class family. Very upper-class.
