Re: What's Behind "Sarah Jeanne Duchek"?
I asked because it was my mother's maiden name, and I thought it would be cute to call a girl Andie. I also love the name Mackenzie for a girl, and that also means son of someone, doesn't it?

Yes you're right, "Mackenzie" is another one of those "son of" names. Personally, I prefer just plain "Kenzie" for a girl, which drops the "son of" meaning.I dunno, it just sounds more feminine to me. Especially since you know that nobody is going to nickname "Kenzie" to "Mac" -- a distinct possibility with the name "Mackenzie".-- Nanaea

Hi, my name is Andie and I'm a girl. I love my name, Andie is my full name. People always ask me "Is your name short for Andrea?" and that is really annoying!
