[Opinions] Charisma
I was thinking of the name Charisma. I've seen it a couple of times and it's growing on me. I think it sounds more name-y than a lot of the virtue names, probably because of Carissa etc. But it might be a lot to live up to ... And I can't decide how much of a virtue "charisma" is ... Charisma often means "big-headed" to me ;-)Anyway, WDYT?_____________________________________________________________________"There are few more distressing sights than that

I love Charisma! It think it's very pretty, the "big-headed" thing aside. I like it spelled Kharizma, too, but I like the original better.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I would not use Charisma as a name. what if they turned out to be deficient in that capacity? It's like naming them Patience. Then when they display the opposite people would look down on them.

I've seen this name before, a not that big actress is named Charisma, and the first time I saw it, I liked it! I don't know if i'd ever use if myself, but it's cute for someone else's kid!Auntie to: Robert, Brady, Juliana & Sophia.

It could grow on me... I'm not huge on "virtue" names, though I love gem and flower names. :b The first things that come to mind are the actress from the tv-show Buffy the Vampire Slayer who played Cordelia Chase, her name is Charisma Carpenter. I don't know if that is her real name or not, though. Also, the word charisma is a bit creepy to me, only because when people talk about crazy cult leaders, they usually refer to them as being very charismatic. :b Otherwise, I don't hear the word very much at all. lol

Charisma is not a name to me, but a word, and I do not see it as a virtue name. Was it used as a virtue name in "the day"? Well, even if it was, I still don't see it as a virtue name. Sorry.

I really don't like Charisma. A child named this would have a lot to live up to, plus I'm not a virtue-y names fan. -Amy-
