[Opinions] Re: Crimson (m)
Well ... the sound of it reminds me of crimp and cringe. So it gives me a sort of flinching sensation - maybe also because I'm unable to completely dissociate it from embarrassed blushing.If I think of it as a surname-like name - as if it meant Crim's son - then the S comes out S instead of Z, and it reminds me of Clemson. Like Clemson U. Not appealing to me at all.I like the way the letters look, but the sound doesn't work for me even if I imagine that I have known someone named Crimson since before I learned the word.- mirfak
