HelpRe: WDYTO Weaver?
in reply to a message by Esyllt
Reminds me of the character Weaver in A Gathering Light. It's a positive connotation but I don't really like it outside of that character. It's a bit in-your-face occupation (although not as in-your-face as Engineer or Architect, haha) and I'm not really into that.
I would definitely rather see it on a male. I don't like Waverly at all, but Webster is okay.
I think Weaver would be a fine MN. It would be quite handsome next to something classic like Thomas Weaver or Henry Weaver.
Also, I was thinking about teasing potential. Wiener, Beaver... man you could rip a Weaver to shreds, if you were so inclined... :P

Is "A Gathering Light" the title of "A Northern Light" in Australia? Because I have read the book "A Northern Light", and there was a black male character named Weaver who wanted to be a lawyer. If it is the same book, I love that character, and I love his name.

Oh yeah, I just googled that it's the UK (and thus Australian) title. I'm not sure why that is, but yeah, great book. Last year I was at a charity book fair, saw a copy of it and remembered how much I'd loved it when I was 12. I've since re-read it twice.
Weaver fit the character so well that it's a really strong association, so it doesn't really "work" as a name for me, idk if that makes sense. Also I'm not a big fan of surnamey names, especially not occupation ones. :) But yeah, as a honouring MN, I don't see why not.
