[Opinions] Re: Irish and Les Miserables names
in reply to a message by Heidi
Your top 5 are nice, safe choices, but rather dull.
Of your Les Mis names, I support Cosette or Marius, but Valjean? Just another surname turned name name. What's wrong with Jean by itself? Valjean is a bit over the top as a FN. It might work as a MN with the right FN, but Jack is not it. Jack and Jean are two forms of the same name, so this is like naming your kid Dave David. Blegh.
Marisol and Tea are both lovely, and Tea Marisol would be a very pretty combo. Rose is a yawn as a MN.
Wit has truth in it; wisecracking is simply calisthenics with words.
