[Opinions] Re: Berhta / Bertha
in reply to a message by erb816
My favorite form is French Berthe, "behrt." I love it.
Bertha still has that "birth" sound in there. But I think of Jane Eyre and "Bertha Antoinetta Mason" and it does have a lovely, Victorian, frumpy-chic vibe to it.
I've never heard of Berhta before. I'm off to check out the link to see what the pronunciaiton is. I suspect it's the same as French Berthe, but with an "-uh" on the end. If that's so, then it is very pretty.
P.S. Another Gladys convert? Yay!
