[Opinions] Re: Cleopatra
in reply to a message by A
Cleopatra has always struck me as too over the top for a real person. It's into the realm of camp for me. I don't know why Guinevere feels useable for me, but Cleopatra doesn't. Weird. I do love the nn Cleo (or Clio as a full name), though. I see Cleo as a nn for Clementine.

I love Cleopatra to death but agree that it's OTT for real life. However, Cleo would make a very cool full name by itself (I don't like the Clio sp much).
