[Opinions] Re: Veronica
in reply to a message by Lily
I love the name Veronica with the nn Roni. I also like the nn's Vera and Ver.I can see a sexy Veronica, a tom-boy Veronica, a girly frilly Veronica, a smart sleuthy or smart bookworm Veronica. I can see a little girl named Veronica, a middle aged woman or an old lady.I've liked this name since I was a kid. I've always liked Veronica, Vanessa, Vivian / Vivien / Vivianne / Vivienne and Vera. Though I oddly really disliked Victoria as a kid. I guess I always felt like it was over frilly and overly harsh at the same time. Though these days I almost like Victoria and I don't dislike it anymore. Victoria with the nn Tori I like. I'm not fond of the nn Vicky.

I forgot.....You asked about the name Heather. I'm not certain which I like more Heather or Veronica. I've only ever known one person named Heather but I've liked the name since then. I've only ever met a handful of people named Heather. I didn't realize that it is often considered a dated name until I became older. I always thought is was an uncommon name when I was a kid. I have a stuffed animal that I named Heather. I choose the name since it sounded romantic, gentle, sweet and flowery. My mom gave us presents for many holidays other than Christmas. My sister and I would even get presents on each others birthdays. My mom gave me Heather on Valentine's day, so I wanted a name for her that suited the occasion.Also I never saw or heard of the movie Heathers until like three years ago, so I don't associate the name with mean preppy girls. I associate the name Heather with the plant. I also don't associate the name Veronica with the movie. I associate Veronica with the TV show Veronica Mars. A Veronica wouldn't necessarily have to go by Roni. Most of the Veronica's I've met or seen on TV have just gone by Veronica.
