[Opinions] Re: Celeb BA
Gee, she has a real knack for putting together clunky combos. Ever Irme stutters, and Onyx Solace runs together. Ever & Onyx sound gothy. I think they can be lived with, although I don't like them.I think Solace is not a good concept for a name at all. It implies a context of luckless unhappiness. Sounds like a name someone who chronically felt sorry for herself would use for her child. It reminds me of the idea of consolation, like a consolation prize. I can't make myself think it's cool.- mirfak

I don't know. I kind of see solace as peace, zen.

Okay, maybe Alanis does too. But nobody says they got solace, if they were in pleasant circumstances. It is related to the word console, and has a connotation of relief from grief. I think it's dark, and I think paired with Onyx it's try-hard-to-be-dark.

Well put, especially the line connotation of relief from grief. Even if she had difficulty having a second child and found solace in her child - that's a heavy burden.

Yah, I get that.
