[Opinions] Re: Eponine
in reply to a message by )(
I dislike it. For some reason, it makes me think of watery unsweetened yoghurt, baggy thick yellow-beige tights sagging at the ankles, and oversize thick hornrim glasses (the untrendy kind), and a very specific light lemon yellow colour, or maybe the off-white beige-yellow of aged lino. I find it a very grating and unappealing name, it gives me a very specific and unpleasant emotional / mental reaction and I have no idea why. Objectively, it's probably not an awful name, I just really do not like it and have developed some weird associations with it. On paper I would quite like to like it, it looks like it could be pretty, and sometimes I do try with it, I try combos, I use it in name games, I tell myself 'it can't be that bad why do I react to it this way', but I think I have to accept that the reality is, I just do not like it.
