[Opinions] Re: Salvia
in reply to a message by peregrine
I like this in theory, but my dyslexia turns this plant name into "saliva" every single time I see it. For that reason I think it would be a great character name, or maybe a cool online handle or pseudonym! But as a real name for a real person I'm iffy on it... Maybe if the person is like really devoted to being a hippy, that could work. As a self chosen name I think it could be fun. On a kid I'm not sure.
Salvia "Sally" is really amazing. It's so eccentric, my kinda thing!
I picture a woman with fluffy, bobbed, carrot ginger hair, definitely not a natural shade, who is about 65 and loves life. She's got that quasi-hippy retired Boomer energy I admire - she makes a mean "Sex in a Pan" and loves Fleetwood Mac and gin and tonics, and you're pretty sure she has Swingers parties (but that's just a rumor going around the cul de sac) and her azaleas are the envy of the entire neighborhood.
Oh middle names!! I forgot.
Salvia Emmeline
Salvia Margo
It's a tough one to combo!
