[Opinions] Hermione
Today's Name of the Day is Hermione. WDYT?I'll basically condense here what I posted for my comment on the name upon seeing it today, which is that I cannot believe the first Harry Potter book came out when I was only 6 years old! When I started reading the books, Hermione was a completely foreign name to me. Harry and Ron, all right I've seen those names plenty of times. Draco is kind of cool, even though the character's a jerk. Neville is classic stodgy Brit (Neville Chamberlain being my main other association). "But what the heck is Hermione?" I thought. I even misread the name as "Hermoine" (her-MOYN, which is very bad) for years, before realizing the I was before the O! Haha - then I kept pronouncing the name as her-mee-OWN until the movies came out and the epiphany occurred: her-MIE-uh-nee.While the name is very attached to the character, being attached to a fictional character is not always a bad thing. And the series certainly normalized a formerly very strange name - although it would certainly be humorous if a real-life bearer wasn't studious at all!***Please rate my personal name lists:www.behindthename.com/pnl/69381
