Help[Opinions] Re: Wdyto Lake?
in reply to a message by maire
Lake by itself is kind of abrupt sounding, to me. It's the same reason Brook(e) has never really appealed.
But I do like names from nature and you haven't spelled it creatively. So sure, why not? My only reservation is the inexplicable popularity of the name Laken / Lakyn. I haven't seen it for a while so hopefully it has faded. I'm not sure where it came from or whether or not it's supposed to be a feminine or a masculine name. I just know that it makes me cringe. Lake sort of brought back that feeling, unfairly I admit.
Aurelia is a terrific mn for Lake. Wait a minute. Now it's starting to sound like a destination spot: "Lake Aurelia." I'm not sure how to avoid that with Lake as a fn. Hmmm. That's a tough one.
