[Opinions] Re: Linnea and Liadan
in reply to a message by Eliora
Linnea - Linnea used to be a favorite of mine. I still like it but not like I used to. I pronounce it the same way you do and it irks me to hear people say it as if it rhymes with Minnie or Ginny.
Liadan - This is one of those names that I really wanna like, but I just can't. I'm not sure why, it just falls flat with me, like my brain just lumps it in with any other name that ends with -on, -an, -en, -in. And despite the fact that I know the correct pronunciation my brain keeps insisting on pronouncing it Lee Aidan which just makes it worse.
