re: #494 EdDantes

I remember when it was not uncommon for men in England to have names like Joyce, Evelyn and Vivian.
Now that I think about it, perhaps we’ve come full circle.

My ex tells me that when she was studying in Warsaw, the Poles had a lot of trouble with her name, “Alison”, as it sounded too masculine to their ears. They took to calling her “Alicija”
