[Opinions] Re: Alwilda
in reply to a message by Dot
It took me a few times saying it, but I see what you mean, it has a greet feel to it, it's sweet and romantic but strong at the same time, especially with the story (even though she married him in the end). Possibly a bit unwieldy in practise though. I really like Alwilda Rosamund and Alwilda Thisbe. How about
Alwilda Mairead (ma-RAID)
Alwilda Rhiannon
Alwilda Bridget
Alwilda Vivienne
Alwilda Luthien
Alwilda Briseis
Alwilda Jocasta
Alwilda Nimue
Alwilda Xanthe
Alwilda Fern
Alwilda Katherine?

Ooh! Alwilda Mairead is so lovely. I tried it with a lot of Margaret variants, but none of them seemed to fit...I think that's the one. Adding it to my Alwilda list.Alwilda Bridget's sweet, too, and I really like Alwilda Katherine. (Alwilda Catherine? Hmm. Not sure about the spelling I'd prefer.)I do worry it might be a bit unwieldy, but since I'm probably never going to have kids, I don't worry as much about how the names would work for a real child.(Though I have to say, I could totally imagine having a daughter called Alwilda. Alwilda and Gertrude. Oh wow. That would be perfect.)
