[Opinions] Re: Elvira
in reply to a message by Zina
I think Elvira is a lovely-sounding name, especially the el-VEER-eh pronunciation.
Definitely a simple middle name. Rose is okay, but I'm not sure about two 'r' sounds so close together... depends on taste I guess. I'd recommend Lynn, Day, or Poppy for similar names.
Also - depending on where you live, people might associate Elvira with Elvira, Mistress of the Dark (a character portrayed by Cassandra Peterson) or the song Elvira (by Dallas Frazier, most famously covered by the Oak Ridge Boys). I'd avoid using it for those reasons, but if someone I knew still used it, I wouldn't be weirded out.
