: I think Jack, for instance, a charming name. :Jack?† No, there is very little music in the name Jack, if any at all, indeed. It does not thrill. It produces absolutely no vibrations† I have known several Jacks, and theyall, without exception, weremore than usually plain. Besides,Jack is a notorious domesticity for John! And I pity any woman who is married to a man called John. She would probably never be allowed to know the entrancing pleasure of a single moment's solitude. The only really safe name is Ernest.
