been thinking about the name Ursula lately, especially after Ursula K. Le Guin's death. i appreciate the name a lot because of her, but am on the fence because of a personal association.

also, while i don't care about the Disney character, i feel like everyone would go OH LIKE THE DISNEY CHARACTER WHO I HATE? to a little kid. also, while i don't care about the character, it grosses me out how that movie villainized a woman who specifically looks like that, and taught kids to see her as ugly.

alSO, the pronunciation..."ur-suh-luh" doesn't bug me much, but "oor-soo-lah" is so much lovelier. if it wasn't an English name, people may get it and learn the second pronunciation, but since it has been used as an English name for a while, both would be seen as right, which is slightly annoying.

anyway, wdyt of Ursula, what would you pair with it, and do you like any of:
