[Opinions] Re: Endeavour
in reply to a message by Norah
I think it would make a great mn. I like it a lot and the meaning is fabulous. I sometimes throw it in as a mn in combos when I come up with lists but for me it also has a connotation that I don't like so much, which is of complete irrelevance to anyone who isn't Australian. If you're interested, the Endeavour was the name of the ship Captain Cook came on when he claimed Australia as a British territory- some Australians would probably take that as being an association of great pride but for me I just associate it with colonialism and all the awful things that happened as a product of that here.Anyway, I love it as a name. I wouldn't use it IRL probably because of that association for me but I would LOVE to see someone else use it. Too much as a fn though. Awesome as a mn.
