Re: Malachi for a girl
I like it - and wonder whether the accent is on the first syllable.

I always hope it is; maLACKee sounds as if something is missing, or at least lacking!

Like Milady Milachi? (smile)I think the term MiLady was used at least as recently as Star Wars movie not too long before Disney bought the rights, so it is not quite archaic. I occasionally use the term Milady with a lady friend (even professionally but not necessarily) in a humorous way, but not without a deeper admiration or with an absolute pleasure to be working with, or hanging out with, a particular lady. In any way that my relations might seem "over-the-top" -- and I can be awfully dramatic, it is not without a "lighter note" of mutual affection - that I too might obviously "laugh at myself" while playing such a part.
