Help[Opinions] Re: Branch
in reply to a message by Ismene
I wonder if I'm missing out on something because of my visceral repulsion to the sound Bra- anything. Brah- is okay, but bran/bram/brax just make me angry. I've always thought Branch was one of the most comically ugly words out there.
Maybe it's just my accent. I'm envisioning it in an English accent and it's nice. To my ear it just sounds soooo harsh and self-important. Purely phonetically, not connotationally.
Ummm I dunno, as a nature name I'm not really digging it either. A branch is kind of a... concept. yanno? I know most people wouldn't overthink this kind of thing, but I'm overthinking the heck out of it. I think that's an ok practice to use when approaching nonstandard names, though.
