[Opinions] Re: Safe, Sweet Or Sultry?
in reply to a message by EsmeLily
As you say, these categories are subjective, but would certainly be influenced by one's generational and cultural backgrounds.
Personally I would not think of Angelina, Veda, Maxine, Lorraine, Genevieve, Eliza, Georgia, Luella, Paloma, Alana, Kimber, Loretta, Cleo, or Zelda as being "sultry". On the other hand, I would have a somewhat "sultry" image of Mimi, Jessica, and Eve.
I think there are several on your "sultry" list (such as Raquel, Lola, Delilah, Amber, Veronica, and Scarlett) which would seem "sultry" to a high percentage of Americans because of their association with particular celebrities or fictional characters whose image still dominates the name.
