[Opinions] Re: Current Female Long List- Destroy! Roast! Tear down and rebuild!
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
Here's my roast. To be honest there are a lot of names I love on your list.
Alyce - A lice?
Adria - incomplete
Avalon - perfect as a mystical place name (King Arthur), but not as first name.
Breanne - Reminds me of the woman who was killed by police
Cara - nickname for a loved one (like baby, honey, mi amor etc)
Clarity - perfect name for a psychic who reads a crystal ball. Clarity Crystal.
Crescentia - Very dark and moody. Wednesday Adam's daughter?
Edana - sounds like a cheese
Elettra - chair
Emerald - Celebrity baby like Apple and Mowgli.
Harmony - har-moan-ee
Ilaria - Malaria
Isannah - I really dislike this name. I prefer Isa or Susannah, but not this 'name'.
Isadora - I dislike all names with dora. I don't see the attraction at all and it just makes me think of mean granny's.
Isabelle - the LE at the end is frilly and unnecessarily. Love Isabel.
Jacquetta - sounds like a card game or the lawn game croquet.
Kiera - boring and unattractive.
Lyra - it has the word lie in it which is perfectly fine for Lyra Belacqua (His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman), but I think it's distinctively hers. Like naming your child Scout.
Lavender - I love the flowers and scent, but find it unattractive as first name. Lav as nickname? What you call a toilet (lavatory).
Shara - will have to remind everyone her name is not Sara.
Violet - violence
Alyce - A lice?
Adria - incomplete
Avalon - perfect as a mystical place name (King Arthur), but not as first name.
Breanne - Reminds me of the woman who was killed by police
