I really dislike
Patty. It makes me think of burgers. I love
Patricia actually, but
Patty,
Patsy, and
Trish all put me off of it. Also, the Ingalls family always had horses named Pet and
Patty. My huge take away from the Little House books, haha. That's not necessarily negative but it's what I think of and obviously animal in that regard.
I also dislike
Martha, though your
Martha is super precious. I can't handle the Marth- sound. I do enjoy those round about nicknames though. I kind of like the idea of sisters
Martha and
Mary called
Patty and
Polly.
