[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had an "old lady" name when I was a kid in the 70s and 80s. People would tell me the only person that they knew with the name was their 90 year old maiden aunt. It's not a big deal- it never bothered me except for a phase when I was 11-13. Cut to now- I hear the name being called out to toddlers in Target. Things come and go in cycles.[/quote] And to be clear -- everyone hates their name 11-13-ish. I hated mine because it was boring, my one sister hated hers because it was weird, my other sister hated hers because people always spelled it wrong. I'm sure my kids will hate the names I saddled them with in 10 years or so.[/quote] So true. It's really normal to go through a phase of disliking your name in adolescence, because you are transitioning from being your parent's child to being your own adult person. Even if you give your child the *perfect* name, odds are good they will still feel this at some point. [/quote]
