Re: Illyria and More Shakespearean Names
in reply to a message by Jagoda
My mother actually has a Corin (m) in her class and when I was helping her organize her papers I called him Corinne and she had to correct me!
Illyria, though Shakespearean, looks very odd and trendy to me. It's a bit of a mouthful as well, and I'm not sure whether to pronounce is Ih-lahr-ee-uh or Ih-leer-ee-uh
I like Alonso, Ariel (m), Caius, Cressida (kind of), Desdemona (GP), Luciana, and Nerissa.
Cousin used to have a girlfriend named Valeria. His dad used to call her Malaria.
I don't get the appeal of Lysander. I think it looks and sounds weird and I always just hear the "lice" part.
Dislike Toby. I do like Tobias but it'd be automatically shortened to Toby.
