[Opinions] Where's Louise Brooks?
in reply to a message by Billina
I like Clara a lot, but of all the "Clare" names my favorite would probably be Clarice / Clarisse (the latter spelling is used in "Fahrenheit 451").
Colleen has always seemed "dated" to me, but I have no doubt it will find popularity with the current hipster generation.
Mary Pickford is amazing, but the name Mary itself is so, so overdone. So many Marys in every generation - even Marie would be 10x better!
I'm surprised Louise Brooks wasn't in the OP, though. I personally dislike the "wheeze" ending, but a lot of people find Louise quite charming (I prefer Louisa).
Please rate my personal short name lists (the latter includes combos):
