Isn't the grass always greener on the other side.... Have shortened mine!

read this thread and laughed...im pregnant with my fourth child,just told my mum and dad what weve chosen name wise and my dad hates it!! but he never liked my other childrens names either. i hate mine!!(and dad picked it) until cherie blair came along i got cherry,sherry,etc its pronounced(sherree) but ive lived with that now for almost 29years. my children are called Natalia,Mason and Logan so the next one has to be a K name,following my backwards alphabet.(cant tell you as its a secret)only 10.5 weeks to go though so il let you all know then see if anyone likes it! as a kid i was always called Natalie in games,i just chose a diferent variation for my own daughter,she hates it though!!

It was difficult growing up in England with a Welsh name but I'm sort of used to it now. When I was little I wished I was called Abigail but I have no idea why. Gwynne(th)

Hated my name as a child but have grown into it. There is only one shortened form that I will not answer to these days & I'm not telling you that. Vivienne

I always wanted to be Elizabeth when I was little but it's my middle name and we have alot of Elizabeths in our family so that was never a good idea, ended up being called Rachel but never liked it much - don't mind the welsh pronounceation (Rat-chell). Would have liked to be Rebekah (not Rebecca) but love being called Lunar which I have been called on and off for about 8 yrs. ____________________________________________________________________ TO CHANGE YOUR NAME ON THE MESSAGE BOARD go into my account details and change you name, your tree will be uneffected.

I neither like or dislike my name and besides I've had plenty of time to get used to it !!

I like the name Claire, I mean there is nothing to object to. It is just that I was born at the same time as the song 'Clair' was popular so not only was there an explosion of Claire's, (there were 7 in my year at school), I keep getting it sung at me! I wanted to be Stephanie when I was younger. My dolls were always called Stephanie. I have no idea why. I still like it now. Claire xx

I don't mind mine June:) Bit boring and not what I would have chosen but it's inoffensive I spose lol

Yes I do. :-) Joy

i love my name xxxxxxxxx(((:

Margaret I was christened Honorah (for goodness sake shhhhh! don't tell anyone) the Priest didn't think there was a saint called Norah (he was Italian) so decided to name me himself - no wonder I don't know whether I'm coming or going N.N.H

I have always liked my name - don't like it when people shorten it to Marg. Have learnt to accept that hubby's family call me Maggie. Doesn't sound right coming from anyone I do not know though. Norah, my grandmother's name was Honora - shortened to Nora; her daughter got Noreen. I always wanted to call my daughter that, but ended up with 2 boys.

I hate my name Norah (sorry any Norahs here) but have always been called Noreen which is just as bad middle name Catherine I don't mind or Kate.. My mother hated her name Norah but to please her mother she called me it can't understand her. Norah x

lol Bella

I hate my full name [Catherine ] but i don,t mind being a Cath . Cath.

Hi Don.yeah, Belladonna AKA Deadly Nightshade is a poisenos plant....However it is also means Beautiful Woman In Italian........and yes, i am most definatly the latter.

I have never liked my name but nothing else seems to suit me! I always wanted to be a Sarah! I named my daughters more (I think) normal names - Alexandra - she always wanted to be called Sally and Robyn - she always wanted to be called Sophie You can't win can you!! lol Tammy

Yes,I love my name:-))))))

Isn't belladonna some kind of poison? (Why don't people use their own name in/on RG Community ? How do I change mine ? Not that I dislike Don, but perhaps he does.....

If you are happy with your name that,s good to hearsome people don,t do they but what one likes another doesnt we are all different arn,t we.
