[Opinions] Re: Justine
in reply to a message by guru
I haven't seen "Melancholia" and probably won't, but I can't imagine that it would change my opinion of the name Justine. I don't like it and never have. "Just" seems too strong a syllable to have in a girls' name. And I don't generally like feminine forms of male names--with the exception of Victoria, because the prominent shift of syllable emphasis between Victor and Victoria makes a huge difference, therefore, Victoria seems very feminine to me.

Not to be picky, but Justin vs JustEEN also has a pretty prominent shift in emphasis.
