[Opinions] Re: Holden
in reply to a message by HailCthulhu
I totally get the appeal of it, in the same way I do Haydn and Hayden: the three consonants are satisfying in combination. That’s as far as it goes, though. I get the feeling that people choose it to signify that they are of the bookish sort. It’s also laden with the potential for puns, surname-dependent.

I agree about wanting to signify that one is the bookish time. I think the book is read in the US in high school? Like, big deal…..
I am definitely the bookish type so i guess that applies lol! I am more likely to like a name if it has a literary reference, but I enjoy Holden on its own merits as well.
