Also, it didn't help the image when Esperanto speakers were so proud to have poetry and music. There is nothing wrong with a poetic language but I was hoping for something more practical and utility based. And, Yes, I know, you can have a poetic language that is practical also.
Now, I like the language a lot, of course, but I am neutral to the name

Vestitor:Daftest poll ever.It is not entirely silly Vestitor, people do have reactions to the sound of certain languages.
Some English people think that a woman speaking French sounds sexy, and I once was told that many French women think an English accent in French is sexy.
I doubt that many English people think that German sounds sexy. And I also doubt that if people were asked to rate a number of languages on this dimension that Esperanto would come high up the list.

ravana:Most of the people think that i speak italian when i speak esperanto . Italians think it is spanish .Presumably because there are lots of vowels at the ends of words and there are also lots of words from the romantic languages.

I guess some people find multilingualism in general attractive (especially if it's European-sounding languages), but I'm not sure Esperanto in particular sounds "sexy" - whatever that means. People are more likely to just be impressed you know another language (at least in the US and UK, which are largely monoglot).
