[Opinions] Re: Enola
I really like it, that and Nola without the E.. though I suppose that has already been previously established XDIt has a cute sound and gentle demure. I think the Millie Bobby Brown Sherlock remake is helping the imagine of it thankfully. There was also the little girl in the 90s movie Waterworld. Though it wasn't a well received movie she was a decent character. And I myself had no idea it was the name of a bomb until someone told me in a different names forum.. they didn't teach that at my school. Possibly a reflection of the American education system lacking in general but I felt it worth mentioningPlease rate my "Names I would use" list if you have a spare moment, feel free to rate other lists too if you want but ik there's a lot, thank you :) https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/223226/138473

I haven't watched it yet, but I will tonight :) Yes, I loved "Waterworld" even though it apparently got the worst reviews ever. I thought it was so fun.I actually watched documentaries on Hiroshima (I also can't remember it ever coming up at school) and even I didn't remember the name. I think it is brought up but people hear it and forget the name again, usually.

That's fair. Yeah I hate when names get a bad wrap that are pretty decent overall. I also have found it has native American usage as well prior to the bomb and it means "Magnolia" in that culture, symbolizing perseverance and growth after hardship. A lovely meaning and I don't really care for Magnolia myself it seems a little awkward and makes me think of Macaroni.

Oh that is so nice! Yes, the flowers are gorgeous. I dislike the sound of Magnolia as well (but it is getting crazy common) and I do not really like Maggie.
