[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anastasia (pre-50 shades).  I still like it, but have come to agree with DH that it’s too much on a daily basis.  Plus, I hate the nickname Stacey.  My DH liked Anna, which I agree is lovely, but a bit simple for me.  My personal test was that a name had to work for a 5 year old, a 30 year old both in a boardroom and a ballet studio, and an old lady.  Even better if the name has personal meaning, is easily spelled (as someone who has a name similar to Ashlee, I didn’t want my DD to go through life correcting spelling like I did), and isn’t so popular that there’s multiples in each classroom.  Naming isn’t easy![/quote]

Are you me?

- one of half a dozen Alli/Aly/Alisons in school. My mom wouldn’t let me use a nickname.

I gave my kid a classic, well-known, historically significant (but not commonly used) name with a LOT of potential nicknames. Everyone can spell it, and he can have a long formal name, a cute kid nickname, and several other options of he chooses later on down the road. [/quote]
