[Opinions] Re: Patricia
in reply to a message by Sarah-Grace
No, I don't think so. It was still common in the 60s so I think it needs another 40 years or so to make a comeback. Probably even longer as it was still used quite a bit in the 80s.
To be honest I dislike it. I hate the -isha and -eesha sound, though. I can't stand Alicia and Laetitia pronounced with an -isha or -eesha sound either. I like them pronounced as ah-lee-see-ah or ah-liss-ee-ah and leh-tee-see-ah, though. I also can't stand the nicknames Patty, Pat and Patsy. Even worse: Tish, Tisha, Trish and Trisha. Sorry.
If you love it you should still use it. It is definitely usable. And could also be used as a middle name.
