[Opinions] Re: Irma
in reply to a message by Billina
Sorry Martha,, I think it’s sort of nice and the tide is turning on it a bit. It’s been cthonic just about long enough. Britain will be spotted with a few baby Irmas in the coming years. The ugliness just sort of departs from names after a while. But I’ve long been a fan of ermengarde because I happen to think all the sounds are pretty and the imagery is nice, plus I watch the great British bake off.
Sorry about the snark, a little bit. People have different tastes. Some people like consonants.
Edit: I think the general perception of the “er” sound will change from it being harsh to being soft and endearing. Sort of like how “Bella” etc changed from dowdy and dumb to being pretty and elegant.
