[Opinions] Re: Theresa and Lillian
in reply to a message by ✧・゚: *Magpie*:・゚✧
I've never liked Theresa very much but when I really think about it, the impression it makes on me ... hmm. That's a really good name, I think.
It has a little bit of "perennial frump" much like Margaret does, but I think that kinda evaporates, on meeting a Theresa (or a Margaret, for that matter) who isn't frumpy.
Lillian already feels "done" to me as a trend, alongside Lily and Willow, and I don't care for its singsongy sound. It also has some "perennial frumpishness" imo.
Vera is nice, but I'm chagrined by the ambiguous pronunciation (where I live, it's ambiguous). I like them both, but still.
Vivian is cool. A little bit brassy, but very lively, and smarter than most names I think are brassy. I prefer Vivien because Vivian looks masculine to me.
