[Opinions] Re: Williams
in reply to a message by JessicaLeigh
Personally... I'd be like, why not just call him William? To me it does not sound wrong with Caemlyn, Huckleberry and Gilead. It's obviously more usual than them, but... Williams is very usual as well, in that it's heard all the time.
If someone introduced themselves as Williams to me, I'd actually assume it was his last name and that he must be famous and I ought to know who he was!
Or it'd me think of a quote from The Lies of Locke Lamora: "Your parents must have been misers to give you nothing but a surname."
If you wanted something a bit less normal, there's versions like Illiam, Willum, Gwillym... heaps of languages have variations of William.
