[Opinions] Re: Edwina
in reply to a message by Bex
Eddie Arnold would be a big joke here in the US because there is/was a famous country singer named Eddy Arnold.
Edwina is just butt-ugly, and I would be sorry for anybody who "looked like an Edwina." Edwin itself is a wimpy, prissy man's name, and there's the very dated, unattractive business of feminizing a male name by sticking a on the end of it, and the ween sound. (Edwina Winifred is bad both audibly and visually.)
Stick with Daphne.
