I don't want to accidentally start an internet war or anything but I do want to put the point out there that the Pretty Cure fandom's reaction to the Glitter Force sub-fandom is basically like if I'm like "Hi, my favourite Animal Crossing villager is Megan, I think she's pretty, I love the colour purple and she has a great personality. Not the best personality, but her personality is cute so she's still number one in my heart" and someone responds with "*Candy"

WIP Wednesday
Tumblr media
Her promotion means more work. More work means more time in the office, and less time with Eva and Clara, as if she ever sees them anyway, and the divorce is coming to trial in two weeks, and while she doubts any judge would assign custody to Marcel, she’s lost almost certain rolls of the dice before. She takes the announcement smiling calmly, but inside, she’s shaking. More work, same pay, no time for her life: but she promised herself to Revachol anyway.
If Lt. Kitsuragi is disappointed, he does not show it. He nods impassively when Cpt. Pryce summons them to his office, and flashes a smile at her when they return to their desks. She steels herself towards gratitude. He’s one of the best officers in the RCM. She’s lucky to work with him. She would’ve preferred to be assigned a heavier caseload, though, after the divorce.
Alice, she thinks. I’m never going to see Alice again. Gods, I’m going to cry.
Of course she doesn’t, and she musters up a laugh when Harry bounds over and gives her a comedically long list of things that annoy Kim—“pinball, the Jamrock Shuffle, discursions into the paranormal, children—”
“Oh,” Judit says. “Well, I have two.”
“I do not dislike children,” her new partner interjects, eying Harry. “Juvies are another story. How old are they, Sergeant? What are their names?”
He’s trying. It’s not that he dislikes children. They make him afraid. He’s seen them hurt in so many ways, and vulnerability makes him tense. You cannot save everyone. You cannot protect the world. Judit shivers. Shaking herself, she says, “Evangeline is eight. Clara is six. They’re—” She pauses. What are they like? She knows Clara hates school, and she does not know why. Evangeline always does her math homework first. Both of them are too old for bedtime stories, though since she joined the RCM, there hasn’t been much time for that. She says, “They’re typical Revacholieres, I suppose. Little girls. More independent than I like.”
Lt. Kitsuragi meets her eyes, empathy flashing behind his glasses. “This city has a habit of forcing them to grow up fast,” he says. “But it takes care of them, too.”
Judit says, “What neighborhood did you grow up in, Lieutenant? I grew up in Jamrock.” She knows not to ask where he is from. He wears it on his back: Revachol.

"Dear Alfie," - Alfie Solomons fanfiction
Chapter 1 - "Dear new friend,"
Summary Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4
Tag list: @mollybegger-blog (let me know if you wanna be added)
I can't wait to hear your thoughts about this guys! Do you like it? Should I keep posting it?
Tumblr media
                                                                                                           Naples, Italy 
                                                                                                      January 8, 1904
Ciao amico,
or well you could be an amica for all I know. Maybe I should start over.
Dear new friend,
I'm so happy to be starting this correspondence with you! I can't wait to get to know you. Ms Alice told me that a student in her sister's class was willing to become my letter friend, but she wasn't able to tell me more about you. So, while I wait for your letter and to know with whom I'm going to write, maybe I should introduce myself first. My name is Clarissa, but you can also call me Clara if it's easier for you to pronounce. I don't know if Ms Alice's sister told you but as you can tell, I'm Italian. One of the reasons why I agreed to take part in this it's because I'd love to sharpen my English skills. Ms Alice tells me that they're good at the moment, but I think she means that they're good for an italian student. And I want them to be just good or well the best they can be.
She tells me that it's common practice to start a correspondence with someone that's a mother tongue in the language you want to learn but I get it if you feel sceptical about this. However, I have faith that we will become good friends. I'm actually very shy in real life, I much prefer to busy my time with books, but given that our interactions will be by paper, you won't be grossed out by my awkwardness. Well, I think this is enough for a first letter. I don't want to bother you further.
Now it's time for you to tell me something about yourself! I'm already extremely impatient for your first letter.
Hope you have a great day,
Clarissa
***
                                                                                                            Naples, Italy
                                                                                                      January 9, 1904
Dear new friend,
today I had the opportunity to see Ms Alice and we talked a bit about you. Oh, you probably will think of me like a noisy girl but I promise that my questions about you are only moved by my curiosity and are not ill-intentioned. However, my search to acquire more information about you was unfruitful, to say the least. She still has no clue about which student her sister Jane had chosen. Letters from Italy took a lot of time to arrive to England she explained. Each time she sent a letter she had to wait a bit for an answer and every time she waited a different amount of time. So, I know that I've only sent you a letter yesterday but what if it takes a month to get to you and then another month to get yours? I really hope that it doesn't but anyway, I thought that I should write you a little more. 
It was beautiful today, very sunny although very cold. Have you ever come to Italy? Well, probably you haven't but a thing you should know is that we always seem to have good weather. Well, better than yours in England at least. Ms Alice always tells me that I should feel lucky and enjoy the sun seeing that the first time she really saw it was when she came here. Apparently, London is very rainy. To be honest with you, I really don't mind the rain nor the thunderstorms. They really fascinate me so whenever I can I will admire them from the safety of my room. We live in the countryside so it's the perfect place to admire nature's fruits. What was the word? Ah yes, sublime. Never agreed with a word more. But maybe I think so because they are so rare here that their rare occurrence it's cherished instead of being a source of discomfort. 
Oh, my parents are calling for me. Lunch is ready.
I'll write to you soon, dear new friend.
Yours,
Clarissa

The Big Moffat Rewrite: Series 7
Following on from my Series 5 and my Series 6 rewrites
XMAS SPECIAL The Snowmen
The Bells of Saint John
The Rings of Akhaten
Cold War
A Town Called Mercy
The Slow Invasion
Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS
Asylum of the Cybermen
Nightmare in Silver
Dinosaurs on a Spaceship
Hide
Supremacy of the Daleks
Extermination of the Daleks
The Name of the Doctor
The Snowmen
·         11 is still a recluse in Victorian London, but because in my Series 6 he left the Ponds instead of losing them, it’s because he’s convinced he’ll screw up if he travels again. After wiping himself from history he’s lying low, not helping because he’s convinced he’ll make things worse
·         (also he’s totally wallowing in self-pity because of his self-imposed exile from the Ponds)
·         Clara re-convinces him he can make positive change, drags him out of his self-absorption, shows him something new
 CLARA’s CHARACTER
·         Clara gets all of series 7. Moffat originally wanted The Time of the Doctor to be a whole series, so we can fit some of that stuff about the Silence and Trenzalore in here.
·         GIVE CLARA A FUCKING ARC – the Doctor takes an ordinary girl who he thinks is special, and accidentally makes her special
·         Most people seem to prefer Victorian! Clara to her in S7B anyway, so she becomes that flirty, authoritative character by the finale
·         The pieces were already there – her being scared in Cold War compared to her taking charge in Nightmare in Silver, but make it explicit – the Doctor realises he is changing Clara and turning her into the person he met in Victorian London and the Cyberman Asylum
·         This sets up her arcs and relationship with 12 – he brings out the liar in her, forces her to become cold and calculating. This is now already happening with 11
The Rings of Akhaten
·         Introduce Trisha Lem, the head of the Church of the Silence, here. The best part of this episode is The Speech, but we could easily say that the Silence is presiding over the Long Song ceremony to appease the Old God, taking the place of those creatures hunting the little girl. 
·         (I imagine the Church pre-Trenzalore as a kind of Shadow Proclamation for religion - presiding over and safeguarding the religious traditions of species across the universe)
·         This way Trisha and the Silence’s role as confessionals doesn’t come out of nowhere in The Time of the Doctor
·         11 and Trisha’s relationship being so flirty confuses me - as the head of the Church, 11 must associate her with all the pain the Silence caused River and the Ponds. Instead, he acts really flirty but Clara notices he’s faking it – a reflection of their own relationship?
·         Trisha doesn’t understand why 11 is being elusive.
A Town Called Mercy
·         Use this story’s framework – a Western where 11 is forced to protect war criminal – and insert River
·         Partly bc River and Clara interacting seems super interesting
·         River is angry at 11 for ‘replacing’ the Ponds. I also think she’d be competitive with Clara? As she’s scattered all over the Doctor’s timestream, Clara is the only person who really could compete with her
·         As an archaeologist expert on the Doctor River knows about Clara, but can’t tell 11 exactly what she is
·         Also 11 agreeing with River’s more violent methodology is really interesting and shows how they can feed into each other’s dark sides – think River’s line from The Angels Take Manhattan – “One psychopath per TARDIS, don’t you think?”
The Slow Invasion
·         A version of The Power of Three told from the perspective of the Alice character who replaced Craig in S5/6. 11 pops in and out of her life with different versions of Clara
·         It’s revealed that 11 has tried to travel with different versions of Clara before, tracking her down all across the universe, but she always, always dies. Our Clara doesn’t know.
·         Alice is deeply critical of what 11 is doing. She acts almost as his therapist; he comes over for tea and talks to her about what’s going on.
·         Instead of the cubes being alien exterminators, this is a plot buy the Great Intelligence (series 7′s big bad) inspired by the Skith from DWM comic The First and Superman villain Brainiac – i.e. the Intelligence is collecting all information it can about a thing, and then destroys it to stop that knowledge becoming commonplace and therefore losing its value. Specifically, the Intelligence is also investigating Clara (because she keeps appearing across its timeline). The Intelligence’s fascination is a dark parallel to 11’s
·         Alice asks 11 what happened to the Ponds, and he reveals they still think he’s dead. Alice tells 11 to go see them (the ending scenes of The Doctor, the Widow and The Wardrobe). She also tells him to start treating Clara like a real person, not a human question mark
·         11 takes Clara to meet them. River is also there, having dinner. The episode closes with them reconnecting
Pond Life
·         After The Slow Invasion launch this minisode series about life post-11, with River barging in instead of the Doctor
Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS
·         Tie the TARDIS disliking Clara into the series arc – it’s because the TARDIS knows Clara is an anomaly scattered through the Doctor’s timestream. Have a scene in Journey To the Centre of the TARDIS where 11 argues with the TARDIS about it – “Do you know what she is? You do, don’t you? I miss the time when you could talk and just tell me.”
·         The TARDIS went to the end of the universe to throw Jack Harkness off, and 11 abandoned Future!Amy in The Girl Who Waited because the TARDIS hates paradoxes – this is the same kind of thing, just make it clear by the finale (Clara even jumps into the time stream INSIDE the TARDIS)
·         Clara remembers the events of the episode so she can be be active in the investigation of who she is, (also fixing how the episode undoes the three brothers’ arcs, but still insists they grew as people at the end)
          This represents 11 opening up to her and trusting her more
Asylum of the Daleks (retitled Asylum of the Cybermen)
         Roll Nightmare in Silver and Asylum into a 2-parter, because the best part of Nightmare is Mister Clever. Both episodes even have the same ‘someone’s about to destroy the planet’ ticking time bomb.
         The army fighting the Cybermen kidnap 11 to get him to destroy the Asylum with a bunch of expendable grunts they can afford to lose to a suicide mission.·         Clara meeting/interacting with another version of herself is really interesting, so we keep converted Oswin saving them·
         Changing it to Asylum of the Cybermen makes more sense thematically
        All those people, including Oswin, being converted – the Asylum’s security system is its conversion machinery – attackers become part of the security system. Instead of a nano-cloud, use the tiny upgraded Cybermats·
         It would also be scarier (a haunted hospital a la World Enough and Time- botched cybermen > insane Daleks) and would add an interesting layer to Cyberman lore instead of making the Daleks look weak. It can also use old models to explain the Cybermen’s multiple backstories, touched on in The Doctor Falls (”everywhere there’s people, there’s cybermen,” 12 says)·
         The ‘subtracting love’ thing makes more sense with cybermen too – instead of Amy and Rory, focus on Clara holding onto her connection with 11 – emphasising their genuine, emotion-based bond over ‘flirty quirky plot device’·
         This renewed focus on the Cybermen is good because the last full-on Cyberman story was in Series 2 (in The Next Doctor they’re just kind of in the background), and Moffat is much better at writing the body-horror of the Cybermen than he is writing the Daleks.
Nightmare in Silver
·         11 deliberately lets himself be ‘infected’ by the asylum’s nanocloud and begins conversion in attempt to save the converted Oswin’s mind.
·         Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the origin of Handles, the Cyberman head from The Time of The Doctor: the remains of Oswin’s cyber-converted mind downloaded into a head.
·         11 uses Mr Clever to get information about her - i.e. that she just appeared one day as a fully-formed person without any family. This sets up the other Claras being time remnants. 
·         It also lets Mr Clever play more psychological games with 11 and Clara – Mr Clever reveals 11 is scared of Clara, putting more strain on Clara having to hold on to her emotional attatchments
·         The Cybermen are actively trying to get out. This way we dig into their primary drive – survival at all costs,
·         What happens when a Cyberman’s emotional inhibitor is broken, but they don’t die? Driven insane and desperate, and fiercely intelligent.
·         I like the idea of the Cybermen like the Xenomorph in Alien; blending in with thoier broken down, mechanical environment, plugging into it and using to separate and play games with the soldiers.
Dinosaurs on a Spaceship
·         Replace The Crimson Horror with a version of Dinosaurs on a Spaceship with the Paternoster Gang replacing Brian, the Ponds, Nefertiti and that hunter bloke
·         I just really need to see Vastra interacting with her culture OK? Seeing her be taken back to her childhood, opening up to Jenny about it. Her anger, realising what the villain Solomon has done to her people. Use this conflict to call back to and explain how she met the Doctor, how he stopped her slaughtering humans before.
·         Clara and 11 go to the Paternoster Gang for help investigating her other selves
·         Clara researches and finds her past selves, not only in Victorian London but also throughout the 60s and 70s, when she’s helping the past Doctors – finding this research is how the kids find out she’s a time traveller
·         This is how THE DOCTOR REALISES HE’S SEEN HER MANY TIMES BEFORE, setting up The Name of the Doctor’s out-of-nowhere, un-guessable resolution.
·         Dark!11 again. Matt saoid they would’ve explored a ‘meaneer’ version if he’d stayed on for series 8. Clara is the perfect way to bring that out as they lie and manipulate each other for their own ends.
DALEK CIVIL WAR STORY
·         Progenitor Daleks vs the regular Time War model. Display how the Progenitor Daleks are different - each of them having a different weapon/role etc. The crux of the story is that the Progenitor Daleks are better at fighting the Doctor and come close to killing him, but the other Daleks value their ‘purity’ and survival more
·         Maximum Dark!11
The Name of the Doctor
·         When 11 rescues Clara she is changed – she retains bits and pieces of her time remnants’ experiences, it’s at once traumatising and exhilarating
The Time of the Doctor
·         Whereas The End of Time felt stretched-out (135 minutes) this felt really rushed. Make it 2 parts.
·         We see the set-up of Trenzalore and the Church of Silence in the first.
·         The second part is the long siege of Trenzalore – we need to see 11 age fighting these monsters, taking his turn being left behind, the tragedy of him slowly losing his memory, focusing on his character
·         We can also flesh out the citizens of Trenzalore and Christmas so their safety is important to us
·         Let’s see Madame Kovarian and her splinter cell break off from the main Church of Silence and leave to try and kill the Doctor – make her a supporting character
·         Then have Trisha Lem explicitly talk to the Doctor about how Kovarian blowing up the TARDIS caused the cracks in the universe in the first place, allowing the Time Lords to get their message out. Instead of a montage, have this be the moment that unites the Doctor and the Silence – they are both fighting to make up for their mistakes and the problems they caused
·         We see the many races surrounding Trenzalore form the alliance from The Pandorica Opens

A Kiss in the Dark Part 1
AO3 (Part 2 included)
“You ready for our set?” Dutch asked her twin as she entered the dressing room.
“Yes, I’m ready, Yala,” Aneela answered.
“Don’t call me that in front of the girls… Anyway, thanks again for helping us out. Clara busted her prosthetic, so she’s out of commission until Alice is fixed.”
“It’s alright, it’s fun to play something different every once in a while,” Aneela said, looking at her sister through the mirror’s reflection. “How do I look?”
She finished her makeup and turned around, showing off her outfit to her twin. Dutch always found it a novelty when her sister put on her clothes. She picked out a pair of ripped black jeans, a tattered cropped top, heeled boots, and various accessories. The only thing that wasn’t different to what Aneela usually wore was her dark makeup.
“You look exactly like me. Funny that,” Dutch laughed. “You look great, now come on. We’re on in five.”
The twins headed over to the stage where the rest of Un-Ladylike Lucy were waiting. Pawter was warming up her voice, while Zeph was on stage double checking their equipment. Yoki was chatting to her girlfriend Clara, who was wearing just a regular prosthetic rather than Alice.
“Alright fuckers, we good to go?” Dutch asked.
“Yeah, we’re ready,” Zeph came back and gave a thumbs up.
Everyone headed on stage which earned cheering from the raucous crowd in the Royale. Un-Ladylike Lucy was popular in the queer punk scene, and they often had gigs in various queer friendly spaces. Dutch took her place front and centre, Pawter stood behind the mic off to stage left, Aneela took the right side with her bass, Zeph situated herself behind her keyboard, and Yoki took a seat at her drum kit.
“Hello all you beautiful freaks! I hope you’re having a fucking fantastic night so far. It’s about to get a hell of a lot better. One, two, three, four!” Dutch yelled into the mic, and the band jumped right into their first song of the night.
Every time Aneela played with the band, it always surprised the other members at how well she seemed to adapt to their style of music. Aneela was a fairly well known classically trained musician and singer, mostly playing the violin, piano, and a mix of woodwind and brass instruments. So, seeing her play in a punk rock band was very off brand. While she had no formal training on bass guitar, it wasn’t that hard for her to pick up. She actually enjoyed playing it whenever she had the chance to experiment.
Aneela was always enamoured by the energy of the crowds at these gigs, how unrestrained and free everyone became. She liked being a part of that, liked to shed her more elegant, professional persona in favour of letting loose a little. She appreciated her sister’s enthusiasm and passion for this type of music.
By the end of the set, the crowd was deafening, all cheering and chanting. They made their way off stage and Clara was waiting with a big smile.
“You guys killed it!”
“Thanks, babe,” Yoki said as she walked over and kissed her girlfriend. “Although I missed flirting with you on stage.”
“Get a room,” Pawter laughed.
“Planning on it,” Clara flipped her friend off.
“Good stuff out there, as usual,” Dutch smiled at her sister.
“Yeah, it’s kinda trippy that you play bass too,” Zeph remarked.
“Well, once you learn one instrument, it’s pretty easy to pick up others,” Aneela shrugged.
“Not all of us went to university to study music, you know?” Clara rolled her eyes and smiled.
“Shut it, yeah? Let’s grab a drink. On me,” Dutch announced and herded her girls to the bar.
They crowded around the bar where their friend Pree was working. Clara and Yoki lit up when they saw their girlfriend Olli waiting for them.
“You came!”
“Of course I did, wouldn’t miss it for the world. Dutch, your sister is pretty killer on bass. Mind if I poached her for my band every once in a while?” Olli grinned.
“While I’d love to, I really only do this for Ya- I mean, Dutch,” Aneela smiled.
“Shame. If you ever change your mind you should hit me up.”
“We’re literally right here, Olli.”
“I swear I’m not flirting!”
“Anyway, enough of your little lover’s quarrel. Let’s get fucked up!” Dutch said as she leaned over the bar to greet Pree.
Moments later they all had shots in front of them. Aneela didn’t partake, and instead opted for a glass of red wine. While she enjoyed the music and the atmosphere, Aneela wasn’t a huge fan of the whole partying aspect. While the band was getting shit-faced and making fools of themselves, Aneela kept herself confined to the bar. 
She watched Dutch dance with anyone willing to give her the time of day. Zeph had been cornered by a rather intimidating goth, dominatrix type woman who was very intent on kissing her. Clara, Yoki, and Olli had snagged a booth and were all over each other. Pawter had found her boyfriend Johnny and was more focused on kissing him than worrying about the people jostling them from all sides.
Pree kept Aneela entertained for the better part of an hour before a stunning woman in a gorgeous purple dress took a seat at the bar not too far away from her. Her hair was pinned up in an elegant bun, with a couple of tendrils framing her face. Aneela was instantly drawn. She looked so out of place among the rest of the people in the bar. Her eyes tracked down the woman’s body, following the curves of her body and down her legs. She really liked the stilettos she wore, she could probably kill someone with those.
“If you’re going to stare you might as well buy me a drink,” The woman spoke, her head tilted slightly towards Aneela.
Their eyes locked and Aneela swore she could get lost in them. The pretty woman raised a brow at her admirer. Aneela smirked.
“Pree, give this lovely lady whatever she wants, on me,” Aneela didn’t break eye contact even as she moved to the seat next to the woman. “So, what brings you to this fine establishment?”
“Fine is a bit of a stretch,” The woman laughed and took a sip of the wine she ordered. “My cousin dragged me here after a family dinner. He and his boyfriend are in one of the bands playing tonight. This isn’t exactly my scene.”
“And what is your scene?”
“Something a little less damaging on the ears, for a start. I prefer music with a little more… Sophistication.”
“You don’t think punk is a sophisticated genre?” Aneela offered her own raised brow.
“It’s just noise and people banging on their instruments. I’d hardly call that sophisticated. Shit, you were in one of the bands, weren’t you? With your twin, right? I probably shouldn’t shit-talk your kind of music.”
“Go right ahead. I’m not that invested in the genre. I really only help my sister out when she’s down a member.”
“Well, I can’t deny that you do look good in those clothes,” The woman let her eyes roam over Aneela’s body, much like Aneela had done to her previously. “So, if punk isn’t your usual style, what is?”
“Oh, I dabble in a bit of everything, I suppose. Classical and jazz are what I went to university for.”
“Seriously? You went to university to study music?”
“Why is that so surprising? Just because I play in my sister’s band and dress like this on occasion?”
“I suppose I shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but I’m not quite convinced,” The woman took another sip of her wine.
Oh, she is fun, Aneela thought.
“You don’t believe me?” She asked, leaning in closer to her companion. “Maybe I could show you.”
“Mm, that sounds like a very tempting offer but I’m not that easy, sweetheart,” The woman smirked.
Every second Aneela spent with this woman, the more intrigued she was by her. She desperately wanted to know her, to indulge in her, and worship her. It had been a while since she felt like this, but this woman wouldn’t just be another one night stand. No, there was so much more to her that Aneela wanted to uncover.
“Are you sure? I have a rather pretty name you could be moaning later tonight,” Aneela reached out and traced her fingertips along the woman’s forearm resting on the bar.
The woman’s eyes slipped closed for a moment, relishing in the teasing contact. She moved her fingers up higher and higher, ghosting over her shoulder and grazing her neck. The woman leaned into Aneela’s touch which only made her smirk. She traced her jawline before using her finger to tilt the woman’s head towards her.
“Delle,” The woman finally spoke once she opened her eyes again. “My name is Delle.”
“My, what a pretty name for such a pretty woman,” Aneela’s quiet words were barely audible over the pounding music coming from the stage. “I’m Aneela.”
“Aneela,” The way her name rolled off Delle’s tongue made it sound so exotic. 
The pull between them was irresistible. They inched closer and closer until their lips were mere millimetres apart. Red lips met with black in a slow exchange, a gentle give and take. It left both women breathless by the time they parted, gazing into each others eyes.
“I think I’d like to take you up on that offer now,” Delle whispered, the soft puffs of breath caressing Aneela’s lips.
“It would be my pleasure.”

The Name Garden: Q&A Monday
Hello everyone, and welcome back to Q&A Monday! Sorry for the lack of Q&A’s the last couple of weeks - I hadn’t had internet due to moving house, then we found out we were too rural to have internet and needed to order in a satellite, followed by the death of my computer and the death of my partner’s computer! Most of these issues have resolved now, and I’ll be getting my new computer today. As always, I am also ill, and at this time am unfortunately going through quite a big flare. I’m hoping that I can queue posts for each day to make sure that content isn’t lacking, but please do understand if there’s a day or two of missing content!
Anyway, off that topic, and onto the new: How has everyone’s holidays and new year been? I hope you’re having a wonderful time! Here are the questions that I received anonymously over the holidays - let’s jump back into the baby names!
If you have a question that you’d like to see featured in next week’s Q&A, please submit it here.
---

Q: Stonep.
A: Hey there. I’m not sure if this was a spelling error or not, or if it was a request for me to post the name. Could I just get you to clarify for me, so I can help out? Thanks!
---
Q: Hello, I'm writing a story about a female detective, could you suggest a few name please? She's an extrovert and has a tendency to attract problems.

Q: What do you think of the name Myla but spelt Milsa?
A: I’m sorry, but I’m not a fan at all. I don’t think it’d be natural for anyone to pronounce it the way that you’re wanting. How about removing the ‘s’ and making it Mila?
---
Q: Which is your favorite out of Fredericka, Augusta, Claudine, Henrietta and Wilhelmina? Do you think any of them are usable for a child?
A: I think that they’re all very usable for a child! The current trend is slowly bringing older names right to the forefront of the popularity charts, so I say go for it! My favourite of the names is Henrietta.
---
Q: Do you prefer Melody or Rose as a middle name for Carole?
