I love it.
Anoushka, not diarrhoea.

Where is the racism in that??? The name Rhea reminds me of diarreah..what does that make me? It’s only an opinion 🙄

I hate it. The "noosh" part is so ugly.

DramaAlpaca · 13/07/2021 22:01

Hate it, sorry. I find it fussy and frilly.

I like it, though it always also reminds me of some 80s comedy routine about posh people (or possibly posh supermarkets?) which had the punchline of a toddler’s parent saying ‘Anoushka! Step away from those aubergines!’

Surely there are people of all names who are unpleasant

I went to school with one. She was a not a pleasant person.

It is beautiful.

FreeBritnee · 13/07/2021 21:18

I love it but I have an Anoushka and she is Noush for short.

TatianaBis · 13/07/2021 21:16

It was quite popular in the 80s so I don’t think of it as unusual

Gigia · 13/07/2021 21:15

I love it

I think it's really pretty. I also would assume they had a parent from Russia (or other surrounding countries), but that's not a bad thing.

Marcipex · 13/07/2021 21:13

A bit like a sneeze.

TatianaBis · 13/07/2021 21:13

Pretty

FedNlanders · 13/07/2021 21:13

I like it

IsolaPribby · 13/07/2021 21:12
