[Opinions] Re: Joan
in reply to a message by oak
I also like the medieval sound and vibe! And tennis-playing suburbanites from the Betjeman era.If I had to rank names, it'd be first Joanna, then Joan and Joanne nowhere really. Which is odd, come to think of it, since I far prefer Anne to Anna.Joan Louise is a good one. Joan Patricia too - very tennis-party. And I know Joan-Ida, who just goes by Joan. Her Ida is pronounced with an EE, not an IE. Maybe Joan+vowel might be worth examining: Joan-Alice or Joan-Amy, Joan-Ellen or Joan-Elize, Joan-Olga? If you're heading for ln hyphenation, perhaps not, but otherwise it could work.
