Nope...for me it's a favourite. I wouldn't use it as I have no Turkish connections but I think it's lovely. I have only heard it said 'HATT e jay' but this was by a Cypriot family - I wonder if their pronunciation would be a bit different from mainland Turkish?

Thank you, I'm flattered :).

Awwh, thanks! Magical/whimsical is what I'm going for. Ptolemy had to grow on me a bit too, or at least it took a while until I really loved him enough to put on my list as a first. But I've always seen Ptolemy as sweet and boyish, which makes him a lot more usable in my opinion. I'm not that much into nicknames, but I like playing around with them and I do love Niko/Niki/Kai for Nikolai, and adore Enzo for Lorenzo. I sometimes have doubts about Pandora, but I always come back to her and to be honest out of all my girls' choices she's been one of only constants. I've thought about replacing her with Beatrix, but my love of the unusual has outweighed my love of Beatrix so far; her popularity where I live is the one thing holding me back. And after some character persuasion, I can't imagine not loving Sybil now, so much strength and energy in one short name!

That was longer than I thought haha.

Thanks! I remember liking a lot of names from your list too.

Thanks! Nice to see some love for the vintage gems :).
