Re: Ralph vs. Hugh
in reply to a message by namesarecool285
I prefer Hugh; in South Africa though it's not a good choice because many people can't hear the difference between 'Hugh' and 'you', which is inconvenient. I've got a Hugh friend who mostly goes by his nn, just to save trouble. I would use Hugo instead. Ralph doesn't appeal, it seems dated rather than vintage, and pronouncing it Rafe is too precious.
