HelpRe: Still suffering from name regret-thoughts/advice appreciated (LONG)
in reply to a message by Renee213
I like a lot of your names. i like your story too, and am lad you had success changing a name. (I too had two homebirths, though this time I did not as I had hemorrhaged with my last birth)so we selected the name before we left. I also liked Zelda, DH wasn't too keen. i have always liked Gloria-he finds it tacky.
Consistency with the other names is not something that bugs me either, as long as the names aren't the same. I.e. my family's names do not have to match wither other, they are all individuals. On the other hand, a name that is way too out there might make a child uncomfortable.
I don't find Katrina ethnic either, fwiw, I think that my DH's opinion on this is weird. But he gets a say.
Not fussed about pronunciation issues too much as long as it is correctable, I think my issue with this one is that it seems so hard too correct people, that it is "ROS'-a-lie" they'd just say, "that's what I said, 'Rosa-LEE'' Guess at that point I just have to say, oh well.
