[Opinions] Re: Brooke
in reply to a message by Lily
It couldn't happen in South Africa, or I hope it couldn't, because the Afrikaans word for trousers is broek, pronounced like Brooke. As for Brookie (broekie), that means underpants, panties, knickers ...I don't go for geographical names in general, unless there's a really sound reason for them; better than "conceived in Brooklyn". And Brooke as an independent name is like River and Lake and such - not my style at all.But clearly all this doesn't apply where you live. I far prefer Grace to Brooke, but if you don't like popular, it might not be a good idea.
