[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the worst names are when parents intentionally spell a well-known name just to be differerent. It sets the kid up for a lifetime of spelling corrections. We have friends that chose to name their dd "Nathalie." There is not a French bone in their body. It's not a name of a relative or a character in a book they liked. Just liked the name "Natalie" and wanted to be different by throwing in the "h". Mom even joked, "She'll be doomed to a lifetime of correcting others. Tee hee!". [/quote] I have a friend with the name Nathalie. Her mom is actually European. I used a lesser used spelling of a name everyone knows that actually has 2 other commonly used spellings. She would have had to spell it for people anyway asking "One L or two" I liked the spelling we picked better than the two more recognized spellings. It wasn't to be different. And it hasn't seemed to bother her yet (she's almost 11 - her birthday is in FEBRUARY. OH HORROR!)[/quote]
