Thank you!
Sometimes I feel like the only person on here who doesn't love just any old ancient name. Some are ugly. This is one of them.

Yes!
I think Maud(e) is horrible. It's ugly, clunky, downtrodden and...ew. Iris, however, is really lovely.

Maud sound like the German word for "murder" so I dislike it
I avoid that
by using the Hebrew pronunciation ee-REES. I think it's even lovelier than EYE-riss, although I do like that as well.

Me, me!
I agree with what you said. And there's nothing pleasant-sounding about it whatsoever. I like Iris, though.
