Re: Waldo, and others
in reply to a message by Ismene
Waldo: one of those vintage type of names that just isn't timeless or ageless. I can't help to picture it on an older male/ grandfather fiqure or at least a male from decades & decades ago. Also "wheres waldo" is TOO much of a strong association. Waldo may have been perfectly fine in its day but now its just too much of a teasing potential
The saying of "where's waldo" would presumably get tiresome & irritating
Willem: sort of like. I think it may grow more on me (:
Becca: don't hate but don't hate. Its very tolerable even on its own
Ramira: very exotic & beautiful.
Glorielle: a bit ugly sorry though not as much as Gloria. Its just...I guess one of those types of ugly but pretty names if that makes sense. Kind of like "pugs" they're so ugly they're cute
Mary-Dot: I only like Mary
Oakes: dislike and way too much of a surname. Oakes as a first or middle sounds very awkward with virtually any name
