Re: Do you like these?
Ida - I think about Ida quite a bit. It's so much more interesting than Ava and Ada, but I think it has too much of an old lady vibe to get super popular again. Although, I could be wrong, I mean, people are starting to name their kids Ethel and Edith again.
Pauline - Hmm. I find Paulina prettier, but I admire Pauline. I had a cute classics professor with the name.
Inez - I was just at an award show where one of the singers was named Inez Jasper, prn "EYE-nez". I love the name and was excited to see it on a non-Spanish person (she was Indigenous Canadian).
Lelia - very pretty. I'm a fan of names like Lelia, Lila, Clelia... names with "la la" or "leh leh" sounds. There's something so delicately princess beautiful about them. It sets my heart all aflutter.
Zora - I like this a lot. It's exotic and sharp but fresher and stronger than Zara, which I am pretty sick of.Warren - for some reason this name makes me think of a sporty, jovial asshole. Somebody who's never had anything but good luck and an easy ride in life. That turns me off it, but it is an attractive name.
Nelson - Hmm hmmmmmm I'm not sure. I want to like it. I like the way it feels on my tongue. Nelson. Nelson. What would a nickname be, Nels? That's pretty good, kind of Ikea cool. Alright, yes, I like it.
Winfield - Ahh, I came across this name in one of my awesome 50's homemeaker magazines. There was a picture of a young Winfield who also had a brother named Alexander "Zandy". So adorable.Warren and Pauline are the only two I can't really get behind. The rest are aces.
