Help[Opinions] Re: Shem
in reply to a message by Alda
I like Shem. I actually had never even noticed it until I was telling a friend of mine how my 7 year old said we should name a new baby a short name with an e in the middle to match his and his sister's names (this is a coincidence, btw, didn't set out to do that!). My friend suggested Shem as a joke!
But it has a lot of warmth to it, and a sweet sound. I'd agree with your association, and it's a nice one. For me it's on the opposite side of the spectrum from Seth, which is one of the coldest and nastiest sounding names to me, with a very harsh sound!
I can see Shem usable by any religious people, not necessarily very conservative ones. It has a sort of crunchy feel to it too.
