WDYT?

I actually love it.

I love Ethan Frome, but much preferred Mattie over Zenobia. :) It's a very lovely name, but I personally just can't imagine it anywhere *but* in Wharton's novel.

I totally forgot about Ethan Frome. I saw it on facebook and just knew I loved it. And duh, why? Yes, Mattie, but... Love the sound and wonder of it.

The first thing I thought of was the Princess Diaries- her country is Genovia.. Yeah, that's all I got! :) NMS, but definitely unique. :)

That's what I thought of first, too! Weird.

appropriate icon... i'm glad i'm not the only weird one! :)

[ee-eye.livejournal.com]

YES! That's was my first thought too.

I also thought of Ethan Frome, which is what made me absolutely love that name, despite the wench who had it in the book. I've always thought it was cool.

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

Agreed!

The Zenobia I know is not very nice.

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

You know one? It might be the same one... lol. Saw it on facebook, some high school girl =]

[duckduckcaboose.livejournal.com]

No, she's a sophomore or junior in college.

Love it.
I'm a fan of Z names of historical queens.

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

Love a good "Z" name =]

[a-tergo-lupi.livejournal.com]

Zénaïde is my fave. ♥

My argentinian great-grandmother was named "Cenobia". I don't like the name, but I prefer to spell it that way

[brittmarie.livejournal.com]

Not a fan.

[sallymn.livejournal.com]

Be hell to have to live with for decades...

[arbus.livejournal.com]

its awful, imo

I had a tutor in undergrad called Zenobia Africa. Was a very bright girl.

It always reminds me of the word xenophobia for no good reason. If I can disassociate from that, I think it's not bad.

[krosp.livejournal.com]

Me too!

It's Tina Fey's daughter's middle name (Alice Zenobia), I think it's Greek. Anyway...I don't hate it at all, but I'm not really a fan either.

[frost.livejournal.com]

I think it's horrible... =/

[holidaylights.livejournal.com]

I quite like it. I've only known one, but it suited her.

[cremepuff.livejournal.com]

It's not really my style, but there was a girl at my high school with a similar name: Zenobie. It suited her.
