[Opinions] Re: Ciorstan
in reply to a message by Elle
Kirstin is the Scottish form I know of. Living here and even as a name-nerd, I've never come across Ciorstan. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist ... After all, Gaelic-spelt names are far more popular online than they are in Scotland. The sibset just seems out of sync to me. Kirstin / Kirsten and Lindsay are very popular names for young adults. Gillian is older, dated to about age 30-40 (think US Jennifer). And Isobel is real old-lady here, and has not come back into fashion like it has elsewhere. None of this should matter really, it's just that the sibset strikes me as odd. _____________________________________________________________________Elinor
