It is a beautiful name - it always makes me think of Robin McKinley's book Beauty - it's a wonderful retelling of Beauty and the Beast. In it the two older sisters are Grace and Hope with Honour as the youngest. When she's old enough to understand the meanings of the sisters names, she grumpily says "I'd rather be Beauty" - and the nickname sticks, much to her distress.
So, of course, her comment is the first thing I think of when I hear the name Honour. I'd have to work at reprogramming my brain before I could use it!!
I finally hung some wall decorations up. It's not much, but it's better than what there was before (nothing).
Since you like Disney villains and reading, I recommend this book. It is one of my favorites. Like the title says, it's a retelling of Beauty and the Beast and it's so lovely and elegant. I've reread it dozens of times.
The library from Beauty by Robin McKinley. It's in a castle and it has every book that ever was and will be published. The book was originally published in the 70s, so I wouldn't be surprised if Disney got some of their inspiration for Beauty and the Beast from this novel.
