[Opinions] Re: Ella.
in reply to a message by lulu
Why should you "decide" to like something? Either you like it or you don't like it, either way is fine, it's YOUR choice and even if you like Ella in this one combo, it doesn't mean you have to like it in any other combo. Don't be so hard on yourself!
I personally have never liked Ella, because it's very old-ladyish to me, and also it seems like only half a name, the end half. I used to work with a woman named Rae-Ella, and she was this dame in her forties who looked sixty because she chain-smoked and fried herself under the tanning lamp 365 days a year. She looked hard enough to roller skate on.
If you want to get around the Ella on its own thing with your combo, you could always use Rose Mariela. Same sound, different spelling.
