[Opinions] Mamie!
in reply to a message by Siri
I love Mamie!
Might be a bit of a stretch for Ermengarde. I'll have to wrap my mind around it. But I like it a lot! A+ idea.My recently deceased great grandmother was called Mamie by her kids, Munny by her grands and greatgrands, and Tom by her sisters. My mother plans to insist that her grandkids call her Mimi, which is fine with me, I dig it.Oh, Penelope. Well, good for her. She deserves trendiness. Bet those are smart parents.
It doesn't bother me too much - as I have said, there's nothing wrong with being trendy as long as it's good! Adelaide's stats, for instance, does not bother me. However if Penelope hits the top 100 it will also probably fall off my short list.eta: Rosalind I am saying rose-a-lind. I am not very keen on Rahzalind + Roz, but I wouldn't mind if she were occasionally called that. I have heard it both ways. I just like long O's a lot, and R's, and Z sounds, and the image of a Rose that comes from the nickname Rose/Rosie.

Just wondering how you actually say Mamie? The pronunciation on the site confused me a bit. Is it like MAY-mee, or more like "mammy"? Sorry it's OT, thanks for your help!
