Help[Opinions] Re: Names from an Australian girls' school
in reply to a message by chickpea
How cool! I like:
Clara
Sibila - cool to see though I prefer Sibylla
Prudence
Siobhan - was this a boarding school? I wonder if she was from Ireland.
Marilyn
Moira - Irish as well? Or maybe Scottish?
Freya - so fresh when compared with the popular names of this time - I agree!
Elspeth
Emmeline - same as Freya, imo. Very refreshing!
Lucy-Belle - not really a fan of double names but I do like both Lucy and Belle and I feel like this is pretty unique for the 80s/90s
These are... interesting:
Telaine
Makarla
Jezamay- I like the sound, but the z kills the spelling for me. Jessamay would have been nicer imo.
Ursula- I hope she was born before the Little Mermaid came out, but I feel like she easily could've been born right around that time if you said late 80's or early 90's... poor kid.
Myann- sounds like 'my Ann'
Talynn- sounds so 2010's trendy yikes
Vynita
Xanthea - I like it in theory, but not on a real person. I wonder if it's said like Xanthe or if the last syllable is like Thea...
Nikora - reminds me of Nicorette
Kady
Cheyne - chain?
Reannon
Penelope - so ahead of the times haha (unless it was popular in Australia before it was in the US)
Lualisa
The most creative:
Terran - I assume she went by Terri. I would much prefer this one on a boy. - It's odd, but not super odd to me. It's probably just a kre8tiv spelling of Taryn.
Nagaela - an Aboriginal name. I couldn't find a meaning, although it is the name of a town in Australia. Pronounced NAH-GAY-LA - it's kinda pretty!
Raneleigh - pronounced RAN-LEE. I want to like this but unfortunately it doesn't have a pretty sound to my ear. Yikes. This looks like a 2000's tryndee monstrosity.
Rebel - hmmm... - Yikes. Even Rebel Wilson isn't really named Rebel (although I think at one point she was telling people she was...)
Mystina - I suppose you could use "Misty" as a nn? Miss Tina?
Fallon - From a surname. Has the potential to become very trendy right now - It was trendy in the US in the 80s because of a soap opera.
Jacoba - a very bold choice - I like it!
Fabiola - LOVE this, she went by Fab as a nn - not a fan but Fab is an awesome nickname haha
Eirann - such a beautiful sound, although I don't think it would ever be used in Ireland
Medea - I don't think I could use this one!
Mardi - I wonder if these girls were born on a Tuesday
Beauacana nn Beau - A made-up name. Pronounced like Bianca, except you remove the the BEE sound and replace it with BEAU. BEAU-ANKA.
