[Opinions] Re: Nim
in reply to a message by little emi
Nim is cute as bug's teeth. And that's why I would never use it as a name on its own. It's one of those names that's crying out for a more formal name.
I'd love to see something scary and impossible as the formal name. "Hi. My name is Nim." "Oh, how interesting. Is it short for anything?" "Yes. Mnemosyne." (prat fall backwards)
Mneme, Melpomene, Clytemnestra, Hermione, even Nemesis (for a characterin a story only) -- they could all work.
