[Opinions] Re: Terrance
in reply to a message by Cora
I love the name! It's one of those overlooked treasures that make people say, "Hey. I forgot about that one. What a great name." It sparkles.
And I also love the nn Terry for a boy. I think the use of Teri as a nn for Theresa made Terry for a boy go out of fashion and it's such a shame. I strongly prefer the Terence spelling. Terrance visually makes me think of a terrace. Besides, the original Latin name is Terentius so the Terence spelling looks the most authentic to me.
Terence Oliver
Terence Ian
Terence Michael
Terence Peter
Terence Joaquin
Terence Malcolm
Terence Immanuel
Terence Patrick
Terence Malachy ("-kee")
Terence Anatole
Terence Victor
Terence Damien
Terence Roderick
Terence Eamonn
Terence Finlay ("-lee")
Terence Isaiah
Terence Mateo / Matteo
Terence Aidan
Terence Niall ("nile")
Terence Xavier
Terence Edward
Terence Everard
Terence William
Terence Avery
Terence Prosper
Terence Anthony
Terence Ivo ("EYE-vo")
Terence Alexander
Terence Nikolai
