Help[Opinions] Re: Albertine
in reply to a message by Wordsmith
I've never much cared for Albert. It's a family "middle name," being the middle name of my grand-father, great-grandfather, uncle, probably more extended. I can't see anything in it that I like.
Albertine gives me the impression of a severely unworldly frontier woman from the dust bowl or some such, like Rosasharn from The Grapes of Wrath, which normally I could work with in a recycling sense, but this would be too much. It's the same feeling I get from Augustina. Cool in theory, but dreadfully impractical.
Alby reminds me of that loathsome polygamist leader character from Big Love.
I do, however, love Alban. I also think Albany is cute as a feminization.
