[Opinions] Re: Vote - Finnish names
in reply to a message by Ailis
Favourite: Vanamo, followed by Ilta
Least favourite: HilleviMilla - Meh. It's so common and too girly.
Tarja - I can't imagine a Tarja younger than 35 years. But I like the fact that it's the name of our first female president.
Ilma - Naming a child 'air' is pretty stupid imo, especially when there are so many beautiful nature/word names.
Ilta - This has been growing on me. I prefer it over Aamu.
Irina - Iri-sound is exciting. It's an okay name.
Irma - Old lady's name. I dislike the sound, too.
Vanamo - Lovely. I love twinflowers, they are so beautiful in that fragile way. One of my favourite Finnish flower names.
Ilona - While I love 'ilo'(=joy) part, this name does nothing for me.
Hillevi - Eww. Another old lady's name, and very hideous one. It also reminds me of polecats (polecat=hilleri in Finnish).
Sini - It's simple and okay, but nothing special.
Kirsikka - I think it's silly as a name, but I love it as a word. I don't think it sounds harsh at all, it's pretty when you say it out loud, especially the first syllable.
