Help[Opinions] Minna
I really like Minna currently (MINN-a). I also like Minnie, and am torn between the two. Minnie I would name my next kitten (I am 100% set on having a cat named Minnie, should I get another), but Minna I like on a baby. I've never met one or heard of one in history. It's very cute to me, dusty in a way that I find alluring, but a little mysterious. When I lived in San Francisco, I remember smiling and becoming namey every time I saw a sign for Minna Street.
I love Minna Catherine, Minna Florence, Minna Constance, Minna Lucille, Minna Dorothy, and Minna Pearl.
It also is a way of honoring my grandfather who died on March 15 (actually both my grandfathers died this year, the first on 23 January, the second on 15 March), since Minna is derived from Wilhelmina and my grandfather was a William. I also like Wilhelmina but it gives me an entirely separate feeling than the cuteness of Minna. I would never use Wilhelmina.
It also goes so well as a sister for my new found love, Iva (EYE-va), and would also complement a brother Jasper or Jerome very well.
Thoughts? Anyone else find Minna as delightful? I can think of one or two people who won't. :)
