[Opinions] Re: Dido
in reply to a message by ari.
The association with the word doesn't bother me, rather, the first thing that comes to my mind is the British singer Dido - she has a unique voice! (fun fact, her first name is Florian).Although the gloomy history of the character kind of irks me. It sounds masculine, too. I only use the DEE-daw pronunciation, by the way.
Overall, it's not bad, but there are better names out there.I vastly prefer Elissa over Dido, it's more usable, underrated and doesn't bring to my mind Dido's history. It's a quotidian name.Dido and Anna / Anne don't go well together; I prefer Elissa and Anne. Dido, compared to Anna, Rose, Lucy, Maria, etc. doesn't feel like an actual name.I'd go with Dido, Anna, Candace and Enoch.
And Elissa, Anne, Hester and Saul.
