Which girl name? Arminta or Araminta?
My Great-grandmother was named Mintie, and often went by Minnie. Which one of these names that use Mintie as a nickname do you prefer?
Arminta (ahr MIN tah)
Araminta (ahr ah MIN tah)
Which sounds better?
Rose Innogen Armenta
Rose Innogen Aramenta
Update:If you knew anything about names, you would know that Innogen is the original and correct spelling of this name.
Imogen was created by mistake as a character in Shakespeare's play Cymbeline. The name was meant to be Innogen, the name of a legendary Celtic character. Innogen or Inogen most likely derived from Inghean, a Gaelic term for maiden or daughter. Innogen was misprinted as Imogen, possibly due to someone thinking it referred to the last born ("Imo gens" in Latin.)
Update 3:Thank you Claire!
