Like
Isla, I have sentimental reasons for preferring this spelling (my best friend
Candis Marie). For myself, however, I have used it in stories and prefer
Candace in such cases, if only to set
Candis on a pedestal above
Candace - "there can be only one..." *LOL*
My favorite
Candace creation of my own is a character called
Candace RaeAnne Sharpe (she's an African American professional vocalist).
My RL
Candis gets called
Candi sometimes, occasionally even by me - it slips out naturally, how can you help yourself? - but truthfully doesn't like it too much.
