What do you all think of the name Tenith for a girl? I heard it a while ago, and really disliked it. But for some reason, it stuck with me. It's kinda cute, IMO. I can picture it on a glam-goth girl. Because the Tenith I met WAS one :)
So, wdyt? Can a kid pull it off? I think it has to be one super cool kid to carry it with 'class'.

Why is that so familiar to me? Am I insane, or is there... an athlete of some sort with that name? Figure skater? Anyway, I like it. I think it's unique and I like the sound. Kinda makes you sound all glam-goth just by saying it.

I like it enough to admire it on someone else's kid, but not enough to use it myself.

It makes me think of the word zenith. Not a bad thing... good actually.

It sounds like you're saying tennis with a lisp, lol. Unless it's pronounced differently?

You are thinking of Tanith Belbin. She's an ice dancer, partnered with Benjamin Agosto.

I thought that too! Maybe I'm pronouncing it wrong.

I do like Zenith, though. Not enough to use myself, but I'd want to shake the person's hand who did use it for their kid.

I did think of a lisped tennis too, when I said it aloud.

Honestly, Tenith sounds like a software company to me. It definitely sounds like a name that will gain an amount of popularity with time.
