[Opinions] Re: Shiri and Shira
in reply to a message by humblebee
I really, really hate them. I'm so sorry. It's a real knee-jerk reaction, I can't justify it or explain it, but I haaate them. Irrationally so.
Shiri is the less English, therefore it is the least offensive, but it still produces this horrible gut reaction.
Argh.
So not good.
Blargh, I mean, I don't want to offend, I really don't. Three months down the line, I might love them, I might not, and either way they're probably lovely names that lots of other people like and you have your right to love... but they make me queasy. I have no idea why.
But ignore me, cos I'm probably the one person in a million who hates them.
