Some of my friends helped me come to a realization the other day - as it turns out, I have very strong opinions about very inconsequential topics. (Best map projection, best brand of pencil, how many continents there really are, and whether or not Pluto is a planet, to name a few.) This may or may not be related to me being somewhat of a grammar/orthography stickler.
Anyways, I have opinions about names. I'm a big proponent of traditional names and traditional spellings. (Names specific to one's heritage and/or culture are cool, too). I'm not going to go into too much detail other than that (for fear of offending someone).
My mother shared this article (click) with me, and I thought it was intriguing. It's the inspiration for this post, I guess. (That, plus I met a girl named "Courtlin" this week.)
