Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Pru has such a nice, comfy sound to it.
One of my voice characters is named Prudence Portnoy. She's the groupie girlfriend of Nigel Vapid, the keyboard player for the Cynical Pigdogs. She goes by Pru, but he calls her 'Puddy.'
I should say that in real life, I know a woman named Truly. she is as lovely as the name suggests.
I love "True", too, which is why it's the prefix for my LJ and Flickr accounts.
Whenever I think of "Truly" I always imagine "Truly Scrumptious" from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang which was always one of my favorite films as a kid.
Still one of my favorite films, actually.
Toot Sweet!
I love Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
I was so bummed when I finally read the Ian Fleming book and realized it was nothing like the movie.
I'm vaguely irritated by the "boys names ending in N" trend that seems to have cropped up - our goal was never to give D a name that our special little snowflake would have all to himself, but we'd decided years ago that our first child would be named Dylan, and now we look like sheep. We're not sheep! Just ahead of the curve!
Yeah, we're planning on avoiding any name that's in the current top 5 or anything like that. We want him to feel just a little special when he starts school. And yet, still we resist the temptation to use the Palin baby name generator. Something in the range #11 - #100 would do fine. (Currently my name is #3 in Victoria - it's having quite a resurgence - and my middle name is #2. Oh, BTW Cashmere, Olivia is currently the most popular girl's name in Victoria.)
Matilda is still nowhere to be seen in the top 1000
It's in the top 20 in Victoria. You're not out of sync, just misplaced.
Victoria has lovely taste in girls' names. (Victoria also is a lovely girl-name.)
I'm surprised there are so many boys there named Tea.

It'd be funny if Frodo had a brother named Tea.

I like the name Prudence. In fact, Clovis' second-in-command is named Prudence.
As noted, my grandmother's name was Prudence Azalea.

We want to be ahead of the sync! I blame Heath Ledger for the Matilda resurgence, though it makes JZ tenderhearted to think of his semi-orphaned daughter.
Actually, it's Repentance Cobblepot.
Oh, I want to be Anathema Brewer!
