[Opinions] Re: Georgia
in reply to a message by Tuesday
i prefer Georgiana. mainly because it doesn't bring to mind the state, but also because the sound is more balanced (the contrast is really nice, most -ana names have such soft first syllables and don't appeal to me as much), and i like the nickname Georgie (though i've met a nasty person named that so i don't like it SO much).
i'd actually like George too if not for all the political associations.
ftr i'm an American currently in Europe. though many English names have become more common where i am (usually adapted to the language), and though forms of George are very common (i have like 4 relatives named the form György), Georgia hasn't catched on. probably because of it's a country not so far from here, and also maybe bc the state is well known. country/place names in general are far less of a thing here than the US.
