[quote=Anonymous]Meredith’s mom here! My Meredith is a young adult now but I had her name picked out since I was a teenager. The only Meredith at my high school was someone I admired. Of note; her name isn’t easily understood/translated by non English speakers. It’s difficult to spell and pronounce. Her name is always misspelled at Starbucks and people assume she’s named MaryBeth. We call our Meredith “Mere” but say it like Sarah or sometimes “Mere” (Mare). And yes, it was considered as a PP said 60+ years ago to be (unusual) male name. The Pamela Sartran baby name book I read during pregnancy had Meredith listed in the “Fitting In/Standing Out” category and that cemented it for me. Indeed, we only ever knew one other Meredith K-12.
