[Opinions] Re: Rebecca and Pamela
I like both names. If I had to choose, I'd say I like Rebecca more. They've each had their spike in popularity, but Pamela's was longer ago than Rebecca's, so at this time I'd much rather hear of a little Pamela than a little Rebecca.
Becca is a great nickname for Rebecca, better than Bex and Reba. I particularly dislike Reba. I can see why you're not too fond of Pam, but I don't think Mel is any better, in fact, I think it's much worse. It's too masculine. Makes me think of Mel from the old TV series "Alice." If I had s daughter named Pamela, I think I'd just call her Pamela.
I'm no good at coming up with combos, but my sister is named Pamela, so I'll just throw out her middle name. It's Pamela Jill.
