Re: Dylan for a girl
in reply to a message by Norah
I have also met a woman named Michael, she Hated the name. She felt it was unfair to her, she always had fights about her name when she was younger and now that she was older she was still correcting people about her name. The one thing that really upset her was that her mother never gave her a good reason why she would use that name for a girl. She assumed her mother never really wanted a her.
The only advantage she felt she had was she could be a tomboy.So, as much as I have tried to disuade my daughter from this name, I think she has her heart set on it. I dis suggested she use a more feminine spelling, and when I rattled off the "Dylanne" spelling she loved it. I think that she is going to use that spelling. Thank you for the idea.
Grateful Gramma ;)
