[Opinions] Re: Calliope
in reply to a message by Julia
Well, it's one of my least favorite word names. Calliope reminds me of the music you hear accompanying circus clowns. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YlrBcUciWg
I think it sounds goofy. So I picture someone friendly, but pretty dorky. Or a daughter of hipster parents, who goes by Callie because she hates when people mispronounce her name "Cally-Ope" and does not like how stuckup she sounds when she has to say "It's ka-LIE-oh-pee, the name of a Greek Muse" and they say "Oh, I thought that was circus music"
