I ran across this name in a book I’m reading and I thought it could make a good substitute for [name]Flora[/name]. I’m not sure about the pronunciation, but I say it like [name]Fa[/name]-larah. Would it be a better fn or mn? What are some nns for Folara? Would [name]Lula[/name] make sense as a nn?
[name]Flora[/name] isn’t currently in the top 1000 and hasn’t been since the early 70s. Why does it need a substitute?
I have to say, I really don’t like Folara. [name]Flora[/name] is pretty, but Folara sound very artifical and plastic-y to me - like the name of some sort of medicine or product. Or maybe like something science-fictiony-, like the name of an alien or what someone from now might think people could be named in the future.
I love unconventional nicknames, but I’m not sure where [name]Lula[/name] is even coming from with Folara. It seems like much too much of a stretch to me. I do love [name]Lula[/name].
I hate to shoot you down so thoroughly, but I just don’t get the appeal. [name]Flora[/name] or [name]Lula[/name] I’d love.
Lol! Now that you say it, it does sound like a medicine or something. [name]Flora[/name] is cute, but I just don’t like it for some reason. Too close to flower I guess. That’s why I maybe wanted to try to substitute it somehow. I like the idea of it, just not the name itself.
[name]Do[/name] you happen to like [name]Floria[/name]? I never understood why that one wasn’t more popular. I do understand if it isn’t different enough from [name]Flora[/name] for you, though.
I actually do like the ee sound in [name]Floria[/name] more than just the blunt [name]Flora[/name]!
