What makes Mia that? I can see the corrupted spellings like Miya or Mya, but not the proper spelling.The sound of change is incoming. What is that change? I have no word as to what.

It just strikes me as tacky, even the spelling Mia. I cannot imagine someone with class using the name.

I don't like the name either, but the Queen of England has a great-granddaughter named Mia, and I guess people consider the Royal Family to be 'classy'.

Kate Winslet named her daughter Mia. Don't know if people think she's classy, but she's classier than, say, the Kardashians (who would probably spell it with a 'K', yet still pronounce it Mia).

It's so ridiculously subjective. I don't like Mia, but I would never say it's "low-class" somehow. Totally fail to see that.

Sort of the problem I see with the name Brandy?

I think everyone shares that view of Brandy.

Not the parents of my daughter's high school friend. I doubt they were thinking, "We have no 'class' so let's show the world!" when they named her Brandy.This topic is so distasteful.

Yet, I see we are discussing it. And what's "class", anyway? I think it's more shown in character, and politeness under stress.I wonder why Brandy, and not Vodka? Or Whisky? If an "i" ending is desirable, Whiski would work.
I had a school-mate named Sherry.
