原文: We named our daughter Clarisse, nickname Clary. People seem to love her name and I am glad we went with this more modern-looking version than Clarice. While I love both names, there are far less comments about Silence of the Lambs when people read her name rather than just hear it!
原文: I love the name Clarisse. I prefer this spelling over Clarice, because I think that spelling looks a little bit plain and old lady-ish, and also doesn't have the Clarisse McClellan association, who is a book character I love (mentioned before by another poster).I think Clarisse looks and sounds beautiful. It can also be shortened to the more down-to-earth Reese, Claire, and perhaps Clara. How lovely!I want this to be the name of my first daughter.
