I love seeing old names brought back the same way I love seeing an old brick building renovated. It warms my heart.
Yes, I can definitely see
Elmira coming back. If
Hazel,
Josephine and
Ada can find an audience, then why not
Elmira too?
Variant
Edelmira really makes my day. What a great name.
I confess I prefer
Elvira to
Elmira, except I use the Spanish pronunciation of
Elvira to avoid the vampiress association. But
Elmira has an air of mystery to it that I find very attractive too.
I'm a big fan of
Myra ("MIE-ruh") as well.
