Help[Opinions] Re: Seattle
in reply to a message by Hola123
:P I could see it on a boy, it IS a boy's name, since Seattle was named after the Indian chief in the area. Not on a girl though. yuck.
Sealth is another variant on the name; they are both Anglicizations of the original Salish which is very gutteral and difficult for English speakers.
I wouldn't use either on a kid; in Salish culture it's sacrilegious to speak a person's name after they die. Even the fact that the city was named after him is sacrilegious.
I live in Seattle.
