Re: Names you've wildly changed your opinion of
in reply to a message by G
I use to really like the name Rachel, but now I don't really like it. I probably only liked it because of the TV show Friends which I watched as a kid. The name doesn't have a pretty sound to me personally. There was also a time when I absolutely hated my own name, Lia, which at that time I thought it wasn't pretty. I did want to be named Ariel though, because apparently that was my favourite Disney princess at the time. Now I don't really like the name Ariel.

Lia is pretty. You are quite fortunate to have such a nice name. As odd as it sounds, I like Rachel conceptually. The fact that Rachel starts with an R and ends with an L makes it break the mold of girl names beginning with a softer letter and finishing with an A. The meaning of Rachel and it's heavy usage keep me from liking it.
