Help[Opinions] Re: Edwina
in reply to a message by Bex
Edwina Daphne is nice.
The near-repetition in Edwina Winifred turns me off a bit, and Edwina Hilda is just too hipster for me.
Order I like them:
1. Daphne
2. Edwina pronounced ed-DWIN-na or ED-win-na. Or spelled Edwinna. It's based on Edwin so why should there be a ween sound in it? People are teachable!
3. Winifred
4. Edwina pronounced ed-WEE-na (Ed wiener!)
eta I agree with Felie, the prn DAHF-neh / -nuh is a little nicer than DAF-nee. But I guess it might seem pretentious for an English speaker.
