[Opinions] Re: Thoughts on Honoria
in reply to a message by Andrew
1. WDYTO Honoria? Over-the-top, pretty, NMS, etc.
It's totally over the top for me. I really, really disllike frilly names and this is one of them. I can't picture a normal little girl named this - just some Victorian chick in a bad movie who always behaves perfectly.
2. How would you pronounce it? I've always thought on-OR-ee-a. - Ditto.
3. Any middle name suggestions? Or would you rather it used as a middle name, in which case any first name suggestions?
I think it could be a neat middle name but it needs a super simple first name. Our tastes are quite different so I'm not going to attempt to suggest any
4. Would you ever seriously consider using it?
Nope. I'd consider Annora first, I find it much more modern and approachable.

It's nice.
One of the weird things about me is that I tend to like very strong-sounding and harsh names for girls' - they have a sense of power and strength to them. Rose Honoria is just...so frilly and pretty and flowery and perfect and upper class that it's not something I could get behind. :-/ Nothing against you, it's just not something I could see myself using. I think Rose Honoria is pretty...but what about Ivy Honoria (a bit more tomboy than Rose)?
