Help[Opinions] Re: Darlene
in reply to a message by Billina
I'm very interested to hear that you like it. I've been contemplating it for years, not because it's a name that fits in with my naming style or because I find the sound particularly nice, but because it's my grandmother's name.
I used to really hate it. It's sounded frumpy and old fashioned to me when I was growing up, and not in the classic/retro sort of way. However, once I got a little older, I started to realize the name is so synonymous of my grandmother to me that I can't help but find it endearing. The meaning of the name is sweet, and my grandmother is a beautiful, remarkable woman.
I do prefer Darlene in the middle, though.
