Help[Opinions] Re: Adlay
in reply to a message by Remora L.
Adlai Stevenson, a largish name in American history.
Pronounced ADD-lie in the US.
I always sort of assumed it was Biblical ... it's Hebrewy, like Sarai or Boaz.
Never heard of it as a surname.
Definitely usable, but Adlay maybe not. It reminds me more of Finlay or Lindsay and I first read it like Hadley without the H. Seems surnamey.
