Help[Opinions] Re: Bow
in reply to a message by m4yb3_daijirou
To be honest, my first association had nothing to do with archery or warfare... it had to do with hair bows or lace bows, the bows you see tied on girls dresses. This is probably because I put a bow in my daughter's hair every morning.
In any case - it is certainly an interesting name. I didn't really like it at first, but the more I see it and say it, the more I like it.
I think I would shy away from middle names that are one syllable, because it makes the name a bit too stunted and phrase-y. For example, Bow Jayne looks pretty, but when you say it aloud... well, I personally want to add "jangles" and say bojangles. But that is just me.
Bow Marie is actually quite lovely. I would go with the French theme since it adds a pretty little feminie touch to the name. Bow Amelie, Bow Maelys, Bow Zenaide, Bow Sybille, or Bow Roselle would be pretty.
Bow Dina sounds a bit off... like some catch phrase from the late 80's or early 90's (bodacious dude).
Bow Davina works, but it's not really appealing to me personally. I think Bow Nevena would be better.
It's a quirky choice, I will give you that!
