HelpRe: Alice or Anne
in reply to a message by A
ALICE
Pros: classic but very retro, nice sound, nice meaning ("noble"), most people know how to spell it, cute nn, Ali
Cons: visually turns into 'a lice' (I'm sure no one else sees that but me!)
ANNE
Pros: has a long history, pedigree, nice meaning ("grace"), adorable nn, Annie
Cons: it sounds rather plain, very common fn and mn throughout the years, just not very exiting to me because it sounds like an article of speech ('an')
FWIW, I say go with Alice!

Yes - even as a kid I saw that "lice" thing. It was my gran's name, and much as I loved her I was troubled by that spelling!
