[Opinions] Re: Mirren / Merrin
in reply to a message by G
Mirren's relatively well known in Scotland and Ireland, so i don't automatically associate it with the actress. I like Mirren, but not Muirne which is the more Irish equivalent. I prefer Merryn to Merrin. Merrin looks like a surname. Mum to Mousie, Foo, Bumptious and Pudding
