Hello berries, what are your honest thoughts on the name Coventina? I’m on the fence on it, and I can’t put on my finger why. What are some pros/cons of this name? Is it too out there, or is it just not wearable?
Sounds kind of like Covid + quarantine to me!

I didn’t think of Covid at all, actually! But I did think of the word ‘convent’ and pictured a nun. I think it’s an elegant name with a cool sound.

Well I never thought of COVID or convent but I did think of covenant. Not a fan a little too out there and unwearable imho

It reminds me of:

- convention/conventional
- covid

Might be because it’s [name_u]October[/name_u] but my first thought was witch covens!

I thought immediately of a covenant. And although I didn’t think of it when I saw it, I think the ‘cov’ beginning is problematic in the current climate.

Honestly, my first thought was: Is this supposed to be a creative way to ‘honor’ covid ?
Pro’s: unique (if you like unique names), melodious sound
Con’s: reminds of covid, a bit out there

I didn’t think of Covid or convention(al) at all – my first thought was ‘cove’ or ‘current’. However, I do agree that it may not be wearable regarding the current situation – but maybe in future!

[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought was anime convention, but I’m probably just a dweeb. I still don’t really associate it with Covid even after reading all the replies

I didn’t think COVID at all, but my first 3 word associations (which which came to me almost immediately) were
Covet (jealousy)
Convent (nuns)
and [name_m]Coven[/name_m] (group of witches)
Personally, I feel this name is more usable if writing a book character where you want the character to be associated with a similar word. If using it on a real-life child, I think there are too many word associations that could make it feel weird
