Jessica “Cara”? :blossom:
Ok, before you all come at me, the end of Jessica and the start of Cara rhyme where I am - Caah-ruh, not Care-uh.
I thought of this when I got an idea of building off the end of a name for a nickname.

Again, hypothetical, not a baby, just a hypothetical.

So…

  • Cara could actually work for Jessica (with the pronunciations outlined)
  • A little stretchy but I like it
  • Too stretchy for me, sorry

Thank you! :sparkles:

I’d pick this for my own!

i do think it works, but a middle with ‘ra’ in it, especially at the start, would help make it seem more natural!

Thank you for making me discover Proserpina!! I knew it before but I never considered it :sob:

Isn’t it the [name_m]Roman[/name_m] name of [name_f]Persephone[/name_f]? I kind of like [name_f]Proserpina[/name_f] but I don’t like [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] (in my native language it is Persefone, it is better imo in this spelling, but I still wouldn’t use it)

[name_f]Proserpina[/name_f] imo has a bit better sound and I kind of like it ? It feels like a mix of [name_m]Prosper[/name_m] (which I like) and -ina names which I like as well, and feels very Ancient [name_m]Roman[/name_m] / academia cool.

but I would keep it as a GP still because it reminds me too much of [name_f]Giuseppina[/name_f] which is such an old lady name (negatively) in my language / context (sorry if I offended anyone here who likes [name_f]Giuseppina[/name_f] )

What about [name_f]Cassie[/name_f]?

How do you pronounce [name_u]Marin[/name_u]? Because for me, [name_u]Marin[/name_u] and [name_f]Maren[/name_f] are totally different. [name_u]Marin[/name_u] is MAAH-rin and [name_f]Maren[/name_f] is MAAH-ren.

i intuitively pronounce [name_f]Maren[/name_f] to rhyme with [name_f]Karen[/name_f], but [name_u]Marin[/name_u] to rhyme with [name_f]Corinne[/name_f]!

Cassie’s alright! I suppose all the letters are in there.
Not a fan of [name_u]Cass[/name_u] though.
