Imola for a girl? Thoughts....

[1Rectory]

Considering using Imola, as the name for are soon to be born baby girl, with Mae or Rose as a middle name. Know it's unusual, and can't find out much about its use as a name, and don't want to discuss it with family... Thanks

Yep. Ebola here.

Is that even a real name?

Dreadful.

Ebola or Ebola spring to mind

Please don’t. Not a nice sounding name.

Yep terrible. Makes me think of Ebola. It's awful sorry.

Race track or the Ebola virus.

Please don’t use Grace or Mae as middle names either. They’ve been done to death!

I know a very beautiful Inma which I think is nicer than Imola

Yep I thought of Ebola and Immodium.
Grace and Mae are so dull and predictable in the middle.

What about Grace Iona? Or Imogen Mabel? Or Grace Imelda?

Immolate means to drown or submerge under water!

Not drowning, burning.

No it doesn’t. It means to sacrifice through burning. Very unpleasant.

Imelda is lovely though.

I thought of Enola gay too. Don't think I'd like my baby associated with that.

Ebola was my first thought before even opening thread

My first thought was a skin condition. Don't do it. Imelda fab.

Immolate
Ebola
Moles

Not great.

Imelda is much better.

I have learnt a new word today though: immolate. Never heard that before, now how can I drop it into my every day vocab?

Yes, sorry, Igot that one wrong. The dictionary says it means 'to sacrifice, usually by burning'! Argh! That's even worse!

Pretty grim isn't it. People still do it from time to time - set fire to themselves as an extreme form of protest.

Instantly thought of Ebola

It makes me think of moles and ebola

Yes, sorry - immolate for me too

Ebola, sorry!

Really don't like it sorry!
