I know am esmé, I like the name.

Absolutely love the name and wanted it for DS before he turned out to be a he. DP said no (but only because in his part of the world it would be considered wanky, I think). Makes me think of J. D. Salinger's writing [wistful]

I love Esmé and Ezra as well!

Bit Notredame though: The bells the bells! Esmerelda!

And Terry Pratchet's Granny Weatherwax was also Esmerelda.

But I love Esmé.
