[Opinions] Re: Sibset
in reply to a message by queenv
I don't like Max because it sounds like a dog's name, but it's not terrible. Marissa is okay too; the names go well together as a sibset.
I know a woman with a pair of twins about seven or eight years old. Their full names are Maxwell and Isabella, but they are called Max and Bella. I wince whenever I hear those names, because as a pair they sound exactly like somebody's overbred, overpriced dogs, the kind where the owner sends out Xmas cards and givs presents in the dogs' names and does it in total seriousness.

...and this is why I don't think dogs should have people names!
