I like it.

My head tutor @ college was named Pearl (now 80'ish)

I'm Scottish but also capable of saying r without saying rrr!

Pearl's a singer
She stands up
When she plays the piano
In a night club ....

Usually. Someone was incredibly rude about her name is the postnatal ward after she was born, saying 'oh my God, why?' and then talking amongst themselves briefly about the 'poor baby'. This was one girl and i think her parents who were visiting.
Mostly i get the usual 'how unusual - its lovely'.
Lots of people seem to like it but couldnt consider useing it because their partner does not.

tassisssss · 30/03/2009 21:11

so long as you're not scottish and roll your r's...it becomes "peril" which is not so good!

QuackQuackQuackQuack · 30/03/2009 21:10

Looking good so far
