Help[Opinions] Re: Adeline
in reply to a message by Belphoebe
I like Adeline. A Swedish TV celebrity, Petra Mede, has a little daughter called Adeline and I really think it's a nice, beautiful and unusual choice!
I'm not very fond of Ada. First of all, it sounds like a really old lady. Second, in Sweden we have jokes that I think are equivalent to the "Ole and Lena" jokes, about an old couple from Gothenburg called Kal (Karl, really, but it's pr. KAHL in Gothenburg) and Ada. Third, when I was little and was going to have a bath, my mother used to say: "Vi ska bada i en lada med tant Ada" ("We're gonna have a bath in a barn with aunt Ada", although it rhymes in Swedish.)
