[Opinions] Delta
What are your thoughts on the name Delta? Dare I ask - what do you think of the double first name combo of Delta Dawn (i recently heard the song)? Take Care.

Don't like it. Delta Dawn is horrible, sorry. There's a singer from here (Australia) called Delta Goodrem. She's very popular and well known and that's who I think of first.

I really don't like it. So many things come to mind. Airplanes, sororities, the end of a river. All associtations aside it could have some potential as a name.I also hate the name Dawn, I really don't know why, I just think that it's a horrible name.

Delta is quite pretty - it's nms but it makes me think of the Aussie singer Delta Goodrem who I like. But please please please don't use Delta Dawn! Probably not many people my age (19-20) know this song, and even fewer will know it once any little girls born in the next few years given this name grow up, but it's such a sad song so has bad connotations, plus the combo sounds a wee bit hillbilly and reminds me of Prairie Dawn from Sesame Street.

More than the song/airline/an actual delta, I think of the actress Delta Burke and her snobby character (named Suzanne) from "Designing Women". So it strikes me as a rich, snobby, and very Southern girl/woman. BTW, the actress' full name is Delta Ramona Leah Burke. So there's your useless info for the day. ;)

I know an airline (like they are talking about below) and a horse named Delta, if the name was ever good for me (which it wasn't) it would be dead by now.

She's 41 and her daddy still calls her babyThat's funny because when I first saw the title it made me think of the song Delta Dawn.
Anyways, Delta Dawn flows well but it's still nms.

I don't like it at all. I don't like the sound of it and I associate it with marshy, swampy areas. Delta Dawn isn't awful but definitely nms.
