Aesthetically I do, at times, prefer all lowercase. However, I look at UCs for inspiration and new names and I often feel like all lowercase letters present a wrong image/aesthetic of a name??!!
As in charles and [name_m]Charles[/name_m] have a different vibe! charles feels softer but as that is not the way itās going to be written in real life it doesnāt properly represent the vibes of the name.
Does that make any sense at all?
Itās very simple to me. Proper nouns are always capitalized.
Itās an issue of correct grammar to me, more than anything else, but also, thereās almost a level of respect involvedā¦? Like, failing to capitalize a name is disrespectful to the name itselfā¦ if that makes any sense at allā¦
Hello Iām trying to pair English names with Hebrew names. While Hebrew names donāt necessarily need to correspond with English names, these children would be raised in Israel and probably called their Hebrew names by most people there but their English names by friends and family in the US and Iād like to make it not TOO confusing for them.
Poll 1: vote for all the names you like regardless if you think theyād be too complicated / not work well as English/Hebrew names
meanings of the Hebrew name are in parentheses
Rowena āWinnieā /// Rena (joyful song)
Fern /// Gefen (vine)
Ida /// Chaya (life)
Eve /// Chaya (life)
Frida /// Shula (peace)
Nell /// Nechama (comfort)

Poll 2: Vote based NOT on which names you like but on which ones are not TOO confusing, or generally make sense if this child is to be called by both names
I donāt mind it for others unless they want their UC rated/reviewed(same goes for funky fonts and emojis). At that point, it gets annoying with the copy/paste and autocorrect on my phone. Otherwise people can do as they please and my preferences donāt really matter
