[Opinions] Re: Twin BA
in reply to a message by LMS
I like Clara. Dislike Elsa, and Clara and Elsa sound terrible together, both two-syllable names that end in A, no good. I hate Theodore. Yes, there was the manly Roosevelt, nevertheless, it sounds totally dorky to me. I don't like Robert, because of the "bert" ending, though I do like the nickname Rob. Lily and Eva are okay, but nothing exciting.

did you know? ...That Theodore Roosevelt's family nickname was Teedy? Not Teddy but Teedy. He claimed to have hated it and I can't say I blame him.

Yes, I was aware. Good thing his nickname among the press and public, in contrast to his family, was Teddy, or else we would now call the stuffed animal a Teedy Bear.
