[Opinions] Re: Alistair or Alastair
in reply to a message by Danno
I used to really like Alistair, but my preference has shifted to Alasdair. Alistair seems a bit whiny and pretentious, whereas Alasdair has a romantic, "moors and castle" Scottish* vibe going on.
I realize that they're all Scottish. This spelling just makes me think of the wilds of Scotland more...or something?
I guess my ranking would be: Alasdair, Alastair, Alistair
-----------------------------------------
Current favorites:
Ephraim / Tristram / Nathaniel / Callum
Cordelia / Winifred / Edith / Theodora
