Re: names on my mind - wdyt?
in reply to a message by Caroline
Hallie: Love it, although I might get a different vibe from it than you do. I think it goes less with Calla and more with names like Iris, Rose, Evie, and Esther.
Mara: Very pretty. It's a warm, quiet name.
Maren: I prefer Mara, but I like Maren too.
Merit: Eh. I echo mirfak's Meret suggestion. It doesn't immediately bring merit badges to my mind.
Birch: I picture a birch rod for corporeal punishment, so pass.

Oh corporeal punishment. Haha, ok, nevermind on Birch.
I was classifying Hallie with Calla because I see it as kind of modern but not modern like Hayley or Madison. Modern like Calla or Lila. But now that I know it's a nn for Harriet I see why you associate it with Iris, Rose, and Evie. It makes me like it more. I don't associate it with Esther, though. Esther's my first name and I really don't like it.
