[Opinions] Re: Middle name for Jonquil...
in reply to a message by Pie
Hmmm. Has she considered Jolyon, nn Jon? That's a character's name and nn in "The Forsyte Saga." The cast pronounce Jolyon with a long "o" sound, but the nn is definitely short, as in Jon / John.
In an attempt to distract her with shiny objects, how about suggesting these instead of Jonquil:
Justus, Carsten, Kendall, Quentin, Cavan (short "a" as in Gavin), Gavin, Garvan, Tarquin, Torquil, Redmond, Tighe, Ronan, Rowan (another plant name), Heath, Rainer, Stellan, Kester, Dashiell.
