[Opinions] Temperance
The new Fox series Bones' main character is named Temperance (I see Ciarda85 has mentioned her today too). What do you think about Temperance?I kind of like. Definitely not my usual style but it's nice, a little earthy and zaney sounding but I don't think too out there.WDYT?Thanks,Jamie

Promise: But I don't want a "fountian drink". I just want a Coke.

I like it and the meaning. Modesty needs to make a comeback, so why not the name?But I like virtue names.

I think Temperance has a nice sound, and it'd be nice to see it revived since I love those old virtue names. But the meaning is a bit overly Puritan for my taste :-)_____________________________________________________________________Elinor"Actually, guns do kill people.

I met a young girl last week named Temperance in our area. She went by the nickname of Tempie. I really love it!
