[Opinions] Re: Alphonia - questions | long post (sorry)
1. What do you think about this name and how good would usage be?
I dislike it, but I think it's a good character name if it's your taste.
2. Sounds too old for modern use? Good for any person or only POC?
It sounds old, but I don't think any name is too old for modern use, especially since it's a trend to bring back old names. I don't get why it would be a POC-only name.
3. Or maybe you don't like it because you dislike Alfonso?
I don't mind Alfonso.
4. Do you like Alphonsa or Alphonsine better?
Alphonsa is pretty. I don't like Alphonsine.
5. Do you think it's too close to word "Aphonia" that describes "loss of voice and of all but whispered speech"?
It would be if I had heard of "aphonia," but I haven't. I'm guessing most people won't have heard of it either.
