Re: What do'ya think of these names, ay?
in reply to a message by Joiya
Janae - I don't like the sound. Its like Danae, which I also don't like. It looks like a contemporary name.
Danae - See above. I actually wrote that before I saw this on the list. I know it has a lot of mythological history but it looks contemporary to me.
Fay - I don't like the sound. I don't like Gay/Gaye either, but I like Mae for some reason. I see this as a name of the past. I like names of the past, so this one so far wins out over the previous two.
Renée - I don't like the sound. I see it as a contemporary name.
Chanté / Shantae - I don't like it. It makes me think of singing in French, enchante, and Chantelle. It looks like a more future name.
Aglaé / Aglaia - Hate the sound. Looks like a future name, though I know its not.
Mireille - I like this, though I would never personally use it. I like the sound. I see it as more of a contemporary name.
Dilay - No. I want to say "Dilley-Dalley" when I see it. This looks like a name one might find in old census records.
Millaray - Reminds me of Manray. It just doesn't flow. Perhaps would be better with a variant spelling like Millareille or Millaraye or something. It looks like a future name.
Zaray - I kind of like the sound, and kind of not. The beginning catches me but the end ruins it a bit. I prefer Zarah. This looks like a future name.
