[Opinions] Re: Grier
in reply to a message by New_Chloë
I actually had one of my first grad school classes with a girl named Grier. Highly unusual. I asked her if she was named after Greer Garson and she said she wasn't for sure, but that it was a possibility as her mom liked old films but wasn't alive to ask. I prefer Greer personally. I think it is better as a little bridge middle name idea, but I could see theoretically liking it as a first name. It's not necessarily my cup of tea, but I do tend to favor it in the middle spot just fine. It has some old Hollywood class to me due to it's limited number of associations and Ms. Garson.
*worth noting: I know of Garson almost exclusively from some of her films I studied in film class, and know almost nothing of her personal life and personality when living. if she was horrid, that might alter my perception of the idea. As it is, I only know she was a brilliant actress at her craft in the few select films of her I had watched.
Please rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.
