[Opinions] Re: Alistair/Alasdair
in reply to a message by Bex
I pronounce all versions of the name Al-ess-ter (non-rhotic), but I don't hit the t as sharply as I might for Hester or Martin et. al.Preferred spelling Alastair though.I think Alasdair is a touch more specific, regionally Scottish, rather than generally British Daphne, Rufus, Theodora, and Barnaby. I think if they were in a sibset all together a Flora, Marjorie, Hamish, or Walter would even it out. Individually paired with Alasdair, they all work.
