1. Please put your own name into one of these 4 categories.
You don't have to tell me what your name is, nor do you have to be "right" about the category. Just tell what category it seems to be, to you:
- "unusual"
2. Is your name in the category you'd most prefer to have a name from?
If not, which category would you prefer to have a name from?
(Please explain why, if you want to - this is what I really want to know. What are good & bad things about having a classic, fashionable, modern, or rare name?)
It is, but it's not in the category of unusual that I'd like. :-) I'd love a name that has a long, rich history of use, but it is near unheard of. (Cyra, Amandine, etc) Haven just seems tacky and is too close to Heaven.
Switching to Elizabeth, I got the exact opposite problems. It became too formal, too long, and too boring.
If I could have choosen my name, I would have choosen something in the middle. Hence why I'd choose a name like Liora for my daughter. Unusual, but not tacky.
