Lodemai + others
Aug. 30th, 2007 12:55 pmHow would you read the name Lodemai ?
It's a name I found some years ago through a Vampire Name Generator (intended for role plyaing) and it stuck with me. Then I found it's an old english name that means 'guide', and other versions are Lodema and Lodemah.
I pronounce it Lo-duh-m-eye, but with a quick 'duh' syllable and I'm not sure if it's meant to sound this.
I like it pronounced in italian because it has a very 'liquid' cadence.
However, I could never use it in italian (at least not for a baby, I mean) because it's two nouns next too each other, 'lode' and 'mai', which mean 'praise' and 'never', so it would actually have a weird meaning.
WDYT?
Also, what about these names?
Daphne
Sybilla (nn Billie)
Glenda
Dominique

I only like Daphne of your other names. And I could like Dominique, if I didn't know a really mean girl with that name.
