Get rid of the -A?
So, tons and tons of lady-names end in an -a. In some base languages, it is just expected. What are some feminine names you find amazing, that usually end in a, but you prefer the non-a versions?
For example:
- Mathilda is popular, but I love Mathilde.
- Aurelia is gaining ground, but I prefer Aurelie.
- Viviana fits the trendy ideals, but Vivian is so much livilier (imo).
- Camilla is becoming recognized, but I think Camille is classier.
- Serafina is becoming a favorite on name boards, but what about the under-rated Seraphine?
- Olive versus Olivia... etc.
*Obviously I picked Clarisse over Clarissa... so what would you pick over the average -a?______________________________________________
