Help[Opinions] Re: Hermione
in reply to a message by Sabrina Fair
Hm. People at BNaBBT are witty as all hell, but they're not realistic.
My opinion: in real life, the name Hermione is actually usable now because of HP. Otherwise it'd be thought of like Portia. Sure, it'll take a while before HP isn't a big distraction from the name itself, but I think it's likely we'll see plenty of Hermiones named -- especially once the films have stopped for a couple years. Perhaps not till they have stopped for 15 years .. take Leia and Madison as examples?
I like the name and pronounce it the same as you. Stress on second syllable.
