[Opinions] Re: WDYT of Jemima?
in reply to a message by Aine
I love the name Jemima. It's so much fun to say.
Jemima Puddleduck and the girl from "Chitty Chitty, Bang Bang!" are what I think of.
Unfortunately, I think it's unusable here in the U.S. The racial overtones (Aunt Jemima) are too ingrained. It's a shame because it's such a nice name. But on balance I couldn't see it working here. I hope it does well in other countries, though.
