Help[Opinions] Re: Brooke
in reply to a message by Lily
I hate the sound of it - only when I think about it. It's like a burp. It's just a shade away from Burke, which I think is so ugly it's funny. But Brooke is a name I've been hearing my whole life, since I first heard of Brooke Shields when she was a child actress in the 1970s, and when she was a model in her teens her image was pretty saturating. So I've always thought of Brooke as a fairly glammy, edgy sort of name, if not a classy one at all. And I don't really LIKE it, but I have no real problem with it. It's a good name.
To me it has to have the E on the end to be a woman's personal name. Without the E it seems abrupt and tiny.
I don't think it seems dated. It was never trendy enough. And Brooklyn is in, so Brooke can't really be out. I've never met any Brookes personally, that I can recall.
