[Opinions] Re: Persephone
in reply to a message by A
1) The *phone part is distractingly like "phony"
2) It reminds me of Stephanie, which I've always disliked the sound of.
3) ...what does "to destroy murder" even mean? Because I dunno, but it sounds violent.
4) The famous Persephone got tricked into living in the Land of the Dead.
5) The Perse* part makes me think of pursed lips.
6) I think that Persephone is just her queen of the underworld aspect, and when she's above ground, she's called Kore...
7) I'd prefer Corinna or Demetra, especially if I was going for the nature/agriculture association.I'm not sure why people pick it...other than that it seems dramatic/Gothic/Romantic/mysterious/glam...haha, nm, it's cool.
I think if I saw it used, it'd be about like seeing Guinevere used, except without the charm of Gwen. It also reminds me of Ophelia.
If it got popular, I'd probably be indifferent to it. I wouldn't hate it like I hate Mia and Harper...there's a chance I might even like it.
The potential seed, invisible growth, quiet strength in darkness, or life/nourishment/joy from death/decay/soil/underground/roots/grief metaphor could be nice.

Destroying murder could be quite a positive thing to do! I've always assumed that murder and destroy mean the same and are used to reinforce that meaning: like Anna-Grace or Lily-Sue. But it's such a very ancient name - who could possibly know for sure?
