Help[Opinions] Lynneth?
I was at my brother's band concert and their was a girl named Lynneth. It sounds to me sort of like a cross between Lilith and Gwyneth, but I sort of like it. WDYT?

I love Linnet (which I would pronounce as LINN-et) and Lynette (which I would pronunce as Lin-ETT).
Lynneth looks pretty too but looks made-up, I prefer Linnet or Lynette. I prefer Lily or Lilia to Lilith. I don't care for the th-sound (we don't have it in my language).

I love it :-) . . .
I thought I'd invented Linneth all by myself as a character name when I was 16, but of course it already existed! It's basically a variation of Lynette and has the same meaning ("little lake"). The variations I like are:
Lynneth
Linneth
Lyneth
Llyneth

Linneth is a much better spelling...
It looks real, if that makes sense, while Lynneth doesn't.

I know what you mean - it looks like a whole and complete name in itself, rather than something cobbled together.

I say this very often, and with my team of experts (my sister), we have discovered many flaws with that name.
Mainly the fact that my sister, very unkindly, didn't stop laughing for five minutes.
As for a personal opinion, I prefer Lillith from the three.
Ah distinctly I remember, it was in the bleak December as each separate dying ember wrought it's ghost upon the floor...
