[Opinions] Re: Illuminata
in reply to a message by S2
I like it a lot and it's been on my mind a lot recently. It just flows very nicely. And I immediately think of light when I hear it.
But I thought, surely, no one was using it. There are many seemingly more sensible names that I've checked that returned no hits so Illuminata must be a purely hypothetical name, especially in Poland. But there were five! Plus ten spelled Iluminata. Although, it seems like they were probably born quite a long time ago as at least seven of them are no longer with us. But still, I think the register covers people born in late 1800's at most and the Illuminati were certainly a thing by that point and at least twelve sets of parents were not discouraged by the association. Good on them, it's a very pretty name.
