Help[Opinions] Re: Huntington and Imogen
in reply to a message by vigdis
I don't like either of them. I think if I were named Huntington I would pine for a nicer, shorter personal name instead. Or at least a good nickname. Probably her name won't get confused with anyone else's, anyway. I might be willing to bet you some baked goods that when she's 13 or so, she'll change it to Quinn or Virgil or Lenore or something.
I met a young Imogen about ten years ago (they were Aussies) and her mother called her Ibby. Too twee for my taste, but it's alright, just nms. I can see how it's appealing to people, being what it is, easy to say and having no "baggage" really. I don't care for Imogen myself because it starts just like "image" in my accent, and also looks like a name for a biotech company.

It does sound like a biotech company. Also Ibby is ridiculous, I hope she outgrows it. My nephew, Isaac, was Ikey all the way to 6th grade. Now I barely remember calling him that.
I think Huntington was between 13-15, she was Alice. Probably older, honestly. I'm curious if she has a nickname.
