Help[Opinions] Re: Magi
in reply to a message by Caralena Estelle
I don't understand what the difference is between "maj-eye" and "madge-eye".
I think it's really, really tacky as a name. It's like when parents name their kid Messiah. It just seems like it's trying waaay too hard to scream "I'm religious and powerful!" to everyone.

Ouch. *licking my wounds*
"Maj" would be said more like "Raj" and Madge, like well, Madge.
I don't think Messiah and Magi are anything similar. The 3 wise men weren't even really devotees of Christ, they just thought he was a new king from what I understand. I respect your opinion though. Guess I just felt like I should explain a bit?

Sorry, I didn't mean to come off as too harsh. To each their own of course :)
I think the reason I put Messiah and Magi in the same category is that neither of them is an actual biblical name. They're just biblical titles, basically. To me it's like naming a daughter Princess.

That's OK, I didn't want to come off as being "holier than thou". That's what I was really addressing I guess.
Thank you for your opinion!
