Help[Opinions] Re: Virginia
in reply to a message by hylo
Virginia is my sister's name. She hates it (because it means "virgin" plus some people make state jokes), and I've always thought it sounded heavy.
I can see the appeal of it, though. It makes me think of hedgerows and lace curtains...or of ivy on brick walls...and my mom used to call my sister Virginia Dare when we were younger, which is a fun association.
About Virginia Rose:
I don't think Virginia balances out Rose well, or if it does, the result is just nms. I get a very strong impression of Typical Southern Belle from it...
(the visual I get is sort of like a postcard from the 1800s):
