First Impressions

AI-Written
The name reads as an heirloom retrieved from the attic and polished up for immediate use. Because the average living Adaline is about eight years old, the antique patina is attached almost entirely to grade-schoolers. It carries the cadence of a nineteenth-century piano piece played on modern speakers. Most people expect someone who wears lace collars without irony.
