Re: Mild disagreement...
in reply to a message by Ash
As someone who goes by their middle name, I would personally giving her the name you are going to actually call her as her first name. It is a giant pain in the ass to constantly have to explain that I go by my middle name and why, and I always have to put my first name for anything official and I really don't like my first name. I plan on switching them around legally when I move back to Aus because it's just such a headache.So I'd recommend avoiding that. Grace Victoria Kay GMV.Grace is really pretty. Congratulations!

I go by my middle name, also. (My parents' choice.)I do like both names, though. Where I live, a French-speaking area, people find it mildly odd that I have a man's name, Jean.
If I spelled it Jeanne, all would be clear, but I won't, it was my mother's middle name, and I like it.
