[Opinions] Re: Agree (m)
Interesting thoughts! I'd imagine Cherie isn't used as a given name in France. It would be really weird if it was. (I'm also feeling lazy, as always.)I have Irish heritage but I'm not close to any of it as I never really knew any of my grandparents. Mavourneen sounds like a name to me (albeit a pretty OTT one) as much as Carina does.Then again, I also think Sweetheart would make a cute, sappy middle name... so, my taste is kind of weird. I mean really, if I met someone with the middle name Sweetheart I would probably giggle and go "awww" but... it's cute....I think I should add here that I'm never having children, so no one needs to worry about my taste in names. lol(I rambled also, sorry)

Heh. You could have three, and their middle names could be Cherie, Sweetheart, and Mavourneen. If they happen to be boys, even better!I don't have any Irish heritages, but I've read a few books that were written in the 1950s - 1970s and set partly in Ireland and the characters are using mavourneen as an endearment a lot, which is why seeing it as a name would be so weird to me.

Perfect. The middle name Sweetheart for a boy reminds me that one of my favorite hypothetical middle names for a boy is Makepeace. So, it's not far off from my tastes lol.I didn't actually realize when I first saw the name that it was even used as a term of endearment! Like, I thought maybe it was archaically used. Pretty ignorant of me.
