[Opinions] Re: Winifred & Beatrice as a G/G twin set
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
They work very well together. Both are heavy (though only Winifred is lugubrious) with abundant nickname opportunities. Solid and respectable, I'd assume upper-middle class.
I'm not particularly fond of Winifred on its own. It reminds me vaguely of Winnipeg, and I prefer the "Fred" element in masculine names - Frederick and Wilfred in particular. Winnie is a bit limp, while Freddie is self consciously tomboyish. A Winifred would probably be studious, but also good at chopping firewood.

Winifred Titania
I enjoy Beatrice very much, though I'm currently more partial to Beatrix. It makes me think of Dante's muse, and Bee is a sweet nickname. A Beatrice would be middle-aged or older, but with a youthful energy, and lots of laugh lines on her face. Very witty. Red-haired.
