Re: Spelling
in reply to a message by Isis
Isabel- It's the only spelling of this name I like. Isabelle looks too frilly.
Claire- Clare looks "wrong" to me.
Catherine- It's far more beautiful than Kathryn, which looks like a "modern" version or trendy version of Catherine.
Kaye- The E just adds something, makes it seem namier.
Evelyn- Can use Eve/Evie as a nickname.
Sarah- Looks more complete. Though I do have a soft spot for Sara as it's my great-grandmother's name.
Marc- Looks chicer. Mark is one of my most detested names.
Luke- Straight-forward.
Jack- Jacques would be mispronounced and not taken seriously in my area.
Neve- Because no one would know where to being with Niahm around here.
Sean- It looks slightly less dated. Cleaner.
Selene- I like them about equally, but Selene makes me think of the moon.
Christina- Looks more classic or proper.
Allen- Biased because my dad and brother's middle names are both Allen.
