[Opinions] Re: Hadrian
in reply to a message by Ceri
I love the Wall; perhaps some ancestor of mine had a hand in building it, a couple of millennia ago! But as a modern name, I vastly prefer Adrian. Anyway, although the H is sounded in the name of the Wall, it was silent in Latin, so sounding it is a sure sign that one's son was named after a wall.
