Help[Opinions] Re: Virginia
in reply to a message by Perrine
Hi Perrine !!!
I would be embarassed if my name were Virginia. It is a beautiful, classic name but the 'virgin' theme is not a solid, expected virtue and value as It was in the past. I mean.. It is a good value but not enough to be good for a given name. Very few boys (or neither) are named Virgin / Virginio so call a daughter Virginia nowadays could be sexist and self-righteous. After that when you are a teenager if your name is Virginia you can be teased.
