Help[Opinions] Re: Millicent or Mildred?
in reply to a message by )(
Mildred reminds me of mildew and I can't unhear it. It's also hopelessly dated.
So, Millicent.
I like Millicent, anyway. It's very bright and cheerful. I was first introduced to the name when a friend of mine played a character named Millicent in a play, and it was my favorite long form of Millie / Milly for a while. Maybe it still is, I haven't thought about it.
Milly and Millie are adorable.
LISTEN TO THE MUSTN'TS
- Shel Silverstein
Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child,
Listen to the DON'TS
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS
The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me—
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
So, Millicent.
