Hello, Clarice….LOL! The Silence of
the Lambs novel and movie may or may not help you decide whether you want to
use this name. I have recently used it in a short story. I like the look and
the old fashioned sound of this name. I also love the meanings. I also love
saying it because it sounds sort of exotic but looks very English.
