Help[Opinions] Re: Deborah
in reply to a message by Lily8
Does it sound dated to you or do you see it as a nice classic?
Well, I don't see it as a "nice" classic because I can't stand it, but I do think it has the potential to rise again in popularity.
Do you know anyone named Deborah? do they go by Debbie? how old are they? middle names?
My ex best friend was called Deborah. She's one of the reasons why I hate this name now. She went by Debbie but she really despised her name, and I think we all agreed with her that it was horrible. She didn't have a middle name.
I dislike Debbie and Debra so much that I thought about using Devorah instead. WDYT?
I definitely like Devorah better than Deborah or its nicknames. I think the V sounds and looks more elegant than the B.
Also do you think people might pronounce it like Debra instead giving it its three syllable pronunciation?
I'm not sure. My best friend never got that but that might be because we don't live in an English-speaking country. But her father was from England and even he pronounced it with three syllables. She would probably have killed him if the didn't, though. :)
