Help[Opinions] Re: What do you guys think of the -lee sound name trend?
in reply to a message by Rainya
I'm feeling pretty okay with it. I just don't like ... well, ones that I don't like. I don't like them for some reason other than the -ley ending.
I don't really mind Henley, Paisley, or Harley ... I don't like the others you listed.
I think Tenley (not Tinley or Tinsley), Hailey, and Marley are alright. Not as favorites.
There are a lot of others I don't like. But it's not because of the -ley.
I notice there seems to be a trend for these consonant crashes. sht kst nsl ksl kst ntl ... It doesn't appeal to my taste. -sley and -nley don't either, but they don't seem as unappealing as the sounds in, say, Kinsley, Brantley, Bexley.
