Help[Opinions] Re: Peggy Skylyn?
in reply to a message by Wish Fish
The sky changes all the time. That's why atmospheric science is a thing? The Peggy I knew embezzled a lot of money, and I associate Peggy Lee (mainly, the song "Is That All There Is"...)
I think Peggy is a cute mid-century seeming name, though. It seems similar to Penny but brassier IMO though not to the level of Wanda or Birdie. Sky is a nice sounding nature name, though it seems kind of generic (so I do slightly prefer it in compound word names like Skylark). Skylyn seems ok (place-namey in a trendy way but fine if that's your thing).
Current earworm: "Little Dark Age (in Classical Latin)"

Peggy is a very pleasant nickname for Margaret. Do your fantasy daughter a favour and make her a Margaret, nn Peggy. Skylyn is disturbing: the two y sounds don't seem to be the same: SkEYElIn, not SkEYElEYEn, because that would be good old Skyline! As a name, I suppose it's an improvement on Horizon, but that's not saying much.
