These are all making me swoon with sweetness lately, although I used to dislike all of them. I thought they were too simple and a bit boring. But I've added all of them to my PNL recently.
My favorite of all of these is
Vera by far (Vee-ra or Veer-a, not Verra). It's so... I hate describing it as sweet, but it is
so sweet. (I like nn
Verusha quite a lot.) And my problem is that I can't think of any middle name that does it any justice at all. I only like it by itself. Every middle name feels like a horrible, filthy compromise, like an inadequate husband for your dearest daughter. I tried
Vera Maria,
Vera Alexandra,
Vera Katarina,
Vera Teresa. I even tried some fillers -
Vera Elizabeth,
Vera Marie,
Vera Lynn. Nothing doing! Only
Vera,
Vera,
Vera.
Vera Esther?
Vera Lenore?
If anyone can give me something that won't make me cry out for darling
Vera out of possessiveness, I'd be quite grateful. But I suppose I'd like general impressions and opinions of these three dears. (
My cousin's name is
Stella Josephine, isn't that wonderful?)
