Re: Crispin
in reply to a message by Llewella
It reminds me of Crispin Bonham-Carter, who played Mr. Bingley in the 1995 BBC production of Pride and Prejudice. &hearts
Unfortunately there is also super creepy actor Crispin Glover. Yecch.
It does make me think "crispy." Hehe. But that's more silly than outright prohibitive to me.
I suspect I would like it more if I met a real, live Crispin and had a more grounded and normal association with it. It's neat, in its way, if not a little eccentric.
For combos I would roll with that stuffy English feeling and suggest maybe:
Crispin Albert
Crispin Roderick
Crispin Edward
Crispin Mathias
Crispin Charles
Crispin Francis
Crispin Frederick
Crispin Bennett
Crispin Laurence
Crispin Gerard
Crispin Cedric
Side note: I searched Bonham-Carter on Wikipedia and his children are Kit, Arthur, Stanley, and Frank. Too cute.

Francis w/ just about anything?... hmmm...
Methuselah Francis works... wouldn't use it, but it works... Perhaps the fact that most names don't end in the f sound helps that... Jeff/Geoff Francis doesn't sound so lovely, but Geoffery/Jeffrey Francis could work. It definitely fits w/ many names soundwise anyway.
