Re: Two sightings!
I've seen Proud on lists of Puritan names before. Don't much like Tiger-Lily... I imagine the parents are Peter Pan fans but it's... I hate using this word, but I just find it problematic. I'm sure I'm projecting the problems with the character onto the name but it's just icky. It's the same reason I kinda cringe when I see Jemima being used. Both names are associated strongly with outdated racial caricatures, you know?
