[Opinions] Re: Real Life Estella Sitting!!
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
I like Estella but prefer Estelle and Stella. I love starry names. They feel princess-like without being overbearing. I'd probably use Stell as the nickname. I don't like the "essie" sound in names like Bessie, Tessie, Clessie, etc. I prefer "ettie" but even then, I'm picky.
I too, like to look at people's name tags. If I see staff pictures in another store, I also scan those for names.

Oh I always do too. That was how I found out one of the Baristas at the local coffee shop in my neighborhood was named Hera. They always keep personalized little name plates off to the cash register to help people remember the Baristas names. Her coworkers all had pretty ordinary young adult names but hers jumped out at me immediately. I remember she said that her two siblings had mythology names too but I'm afraid which ones they were are lost to my memory. She was a sweet girl and probably my favorite of the Baristas too, she quit when she finished College and moved away. I hope she's doing well. I need to go to the local coffee shop again sometime soon to see what the current lineup is.
