Name Pascale for a girl

Anonymous
I hope this is an Easter baby because the name still screams Easter baby to me. The way Holly should be born around December kind of name.

This area is a toxic combo of judgmental and risk-averse (so as not to be judged of course!)

It is the most risk-averse place I have ever lived. Many people are living in terror of what others think.

I know, I'll become a lawyer! No one can make fun of that! Oh, wait...

I asked some teens and teens they said 'ew'.
But go ahead, I'm sure your daughter will enjoy that.

When you were a child, do you think of people 13 years older than you as your peers?

Not to mention, consulting tweens/teens on a question of taste. Should we all listen to Taylor Swift?

OP here, thanks everyone for your input. Sorry I disappeared from the thread, things just got away from me.

We have decided to go with Pascale as it's the name of a beloved relative who passed away. So I'm glad that some of you like it. I know it's not a common name in America but maybe that's a good thing.

Good for you, OP! Glad you found a name you're happy with! Congrats!

Good for you OP. I had a European friend (mother French, father English) named Pascale in college and I always liked the name. Don't listen to the DCUM naysayers. Not every girl needs to be named Sophia or Charlotte!
