[Opinions] Endeavour
Replies
I actually really like Endeavor as a virtue name. I was introduced to it by a different source, a character in My Hero Academia.
It gives me a similar vibe to Credence, another virtue name I like.

Terrible
You know what... I think I like it? I think I prefer it for a girl though.
Yeah, I don’t like this one.
Thank you for this: I haven't read an Inspector Morse book for years, and after I'd finished them all, I read somewhere that if the readers were as good at crosswords as Morse (and of course Dexter), they could have worked out his fn for themselves.
Wasn't it Shackleton's ship?
As a human name, it sounds very Puritan, but in quite a good way. OK for a mn, certainly.

He was named after Lieutenant James Cook’s ship Bark Endeavour.

A-ah - thank you!
I really like both the name and the character. Endeavour/ Endeavor is among my favorite virtue names.
Even though I like Inspector Morse, I slightly prefer the Endeavor spelling since it seems a little less vowel heavy. The extra 'u' feels as if they wanted to cram one more vowel into an already packed name. I know that it is the prefered British spelling, but it still looks a tad superfluous like one bow too many on an already frilly dress.
Oddly, I visually like Honour slightly more than Honor.

It sort of works for me. The word itself doesn't look very namey, but if you say it out loud: "enn-DEV-er". Yeah, ok. It's like a more Puritan Denver. It's interesting. It does sound like the name of a spaceship, but that's pretty neat.
