Otto quickly shot up into my boys top ten a few months ago and is making himself cozy among my other long-established favorites. Lately I've been fancying some of
Otto's offshoots, too.
Ottilie came to my attention first. It appears to be gaining a following in the UK, as it seems to show up at least once in each of the posted
BAs (thanks
Sofia!). I discovered
Ottoline soon afterwards perusing the O names. So, out of curiosity:
What do you think of
Otto,
Ottilie, and
Ottoline?
How would you pronounce
Ottilie? It seems to vary among people, so I'm trying to get some kind of consensus.
Would you give
Ottoline the -leen or -line?
