[Opinions] Re: My favorite names right now
Rio reminds me of the bird movie.
Vesper sounds good, but reminds me of prayers and religious ritual
I like Fleur in theory, but can't ever get the pronunciation right. Floor? Flowr? Fler? Flu-er? -shrug-
I knew a girl called Fred, after I'd known her a while I learnt her name was Winifred
I'm going to have to think about October as I've never seen it as a name before
I also love Jasper as a unisex name

Fleur is pronounced like Flur, but with a more flowery sound to it. It's hard to describe but if you hear it pronounced you'll know.
I've never watched the bird movie. I heard it wasn't great and never bothered. The only associations I have with the name Rio is the song by Duran Duran, and Rio de Janeiro.
