[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 3211940, member: 9037"] My best friend in high school way back in the 70s was a twin her name was Zeborah Anne Zebi for short her sister who was born first was named Deborah Sue. The worse part of it for her was having it misprodunced its Deborah with a Z but a lot of teachers would call out Za Bora ah so she thought if she changed the spelling to Zebra (like Debra) it would be easier. It took her awhile to understand the gales of laughter coming from her friends. :) In the end now that she is nearing 50 she loves her name and that fact that no one else has it. I don't think unsual names are bad as long as they are too unsual like Moxie Crimefighter or Pilot Inspektor. If I had ever had a daughter I was going to name her Brekke Elizabeth. Brekke after a character in Anne McCaffrey Dragonriders of Pern. I was going to name my son Vincent Michael after his godfather but the nurses started calling him Vinnie and I cringed and switched it around so Michael was his first name and I never allowed him to be called Mikey or Mike to this day he is Micahael I hate nicknames I don't understand them why name your child Rebecca if you are going to call her Becky or even weirder Maragret and call her Peggy. :\ For myself I am glad my dad put his foot down when my mom wanted to go on a theme and name me Pearl Angel because I was born on December 7 so Pearl for Pearl Harbor and Angel for Christmas Angel. Instead I got named Carol after a christmas carols. [/QUOTE]
