[Opinions] Re: Bede
OK, I love Bede. I agree, smart and snappy to the extreme. I'm sure I'm saying it worng - like "beady"? Oops, yep, it's "bead". Even better, that! I really like the energy of Bede Rory (what a rascal he is), the dapper dourness of Bede Francis, amd the witty, fox-red Bede Warren. Really unexpected, that one! It seems old and modern at the same time.Bede Ebenezer - is this a trap?! If so, I'm done for.

Heh. I was trying to go for names that made Bede not feel too dowdy or saint-y, but ones that still played on its academic-ness or warmth. It's a really hard name to pair since it's so abrupt and has the prominent vowel sound. But Bede Ebenezer just popped into my head, and it was all fun! I love the sound of it, I think the repeated ee ties them together really well. I did think of you when I put that one into the list since I know you love Ebenezer. I've been digging it lately, too.
