[Opinions] Re: Scheherazade - yes/no? Nicknames?
in reply to a message by Somebody random
I love Shazi as a nn. I did consider Shahrazad but the transliteration of the Arabic name doesn't capture the bounce between the H and r that is present in the Scheherazade spelling. Shaherazade is probably most phonetically correct transliteration but would probably register as an 'incorrrect' spelling in the UK. Will need to give this point further thought.
