[Opinions] Re: Winnie (and more)
in reply to a message by Kris Rose
I think of Winnie the Pooh straight away, and can't really get past that unfortunately. Nicknames can come from anywhere you like though, I'm a girl and go by a nn from my surname, so I don't think there's anything wrong with it in principle.
Benjamin Ezra - Nice combo, though Ezra is still a little odd to me as I haven't heard it on a real person yet. How about Benjamin Ambrose?
Daniel Ambrose - Like it a lot.
Elijah Xavier - Not too keen on Xavier, what about Donovan instead? Elijah Donovan sounds fabulous imo.
Jason Donovan - Jason doesn't really appeal to me, but Donovan is lovely.
Miles Octavian - I like Miles, but Octavian just makes me think of octaves in music, it sounds very un-namelike.
Thomas Nikolai - Very nice.
William Emmett - Too many Ms, and Emmett is too surnamey for my tastes.
Zachary Logan - I prefer Zacharias to Zachary
BTW, how is the surname pronounced?

Thanks for your added suggestions. You're the first one to do this.
I love Benjamin Ambrose and Elijah Donovan. Benjamin Ambrose is a little long with our surname though, but I do love it. (And as for Ezra, with very popular and sometimes plain fn, I am trying for a spunky mn to spice it up a little, as thats how I love my popular fn combos.)
