Help[Opinions] Adore it (m)
in reply to a message by Rose-Berry
I've loved Dulcinea for years. It's so elegant sounding and the literary connection to "Don Quixote" is right up my snobby alley.
Nn Dulcie is adorable. Not only does it have the same spunky, old-fashioned quality as Elsie and Daisy, the meaning "dulcet" is right there in the sound of it. Think, "dulcet tones" when you say Dulcie out loud.
I used to only like Dulcie as a nn for Dulcinea. But I admit Dulcie has grown on me to such an extent that I've toyed with using it as is. Someone on these boards gave me my perfect combo for it: Dulcie Angharad. Whimsical and romantic at the same time. *sigh*
Since you would be using it as a mn, I don't think Dulcie needs anything more formal to be from. What fns would you be using with it, may I ask?
