Re: What do you think of YOUR name?
My name is Whitney Maria.I HATE Whitney so much! I think it's kinda dopey-sounding. My parents named me after Whitney Houston, who is decent enough, though her music isn't exactly my style. (My sisters are Amber and Leah. I like those better.)Maria was after my great-grandmother, who was a Greek from Izmir in Turkey. My dad wanted to honor one of his grandmothers (Dad is 100% Greek). He picked Maria because my other Greek great-grandmother was named Lambrini, which would probably not go over well in English. I think Maria is pretty. I wish they used it as my first name instead of my middle name.
