[Opinions] Alaska
An Australian blogger, Kyree Harvey, has a daughter called Alaska Luxe. WDYT of Alaska?
I usually hate place names but this has a certain likeability to it.
(I think Alaska was also the name of a drag queen on RuPaul's Drag Race!)

I hate it and Luxe.
Yeah, it's way too tied to the drag queen for me! I don't know if my perception is skewed because I'm a huge fan of hers but I think she is getting famous enough at this point that Alaska is a name I'd avoid on a kid.
Alaska Luxe sounds like some kind of ice-cream-based dessert. Possibly with chocolate.
It also sounds like 'I'll ask her' in some accents.
I've heard worse, though.

Yum. I'd love to eat an Alaska Luxe. :)
Can't say I like the name. Some people I know had a horse called Alaska, so for me it's a pet name. And Alaska Luxe just sounds stupid.

Hi !!!
Alaska has a great sound and it is a beautiful territory...
But as I'm not linked with it I prefer it for a pet.
But it is my opinion because as a given name it is lovely.

Also the name of a main character in John Greene's Looking For Alaska. I don't hate it, but I definitely don't love it. I guess I'm indifferent?
