They like it, they don't.<br />My name is a common one, but I like that it's spelled with a K because that's less common. I don't have a middle name and always wished that I did. But growing up, most people I talked to didn't like their middle name...so I had think twice about that one. <br /><br />My Mom also goes by her middle name. Elda Ruth. Elda was her father's mother's name. It was supposed to be her middle name, but when her dad was blessing her in church he changed it. : D<br /><br />Both my boys have family names. But if I knew how Peter was going to be as he got older I would have named him Blake, after my younger brother. <br /><br />I wish you luck as you pick a name for your bundle of joy.Kristi Brauschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15570101397782217019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323963189060803882.post-29178454793159306312013-02-08T01:26:49.468-08:002013-02-08T01:26:49.468-08:00Have to comment on a name post!
I feel my name is...Have to comment on a name post!<br /><br />I feel my name is so me, it's hard to decide on another. However, that is NOT to say that it's my favorite or the best idea for me. I think I look like Kaela, but I don't know if I really feel like Kaela because I think I deserve a darker, more mysterious kind of name. Thistle, Pagan, Crincethia, Dagmar... etc.<br /><br />And I feel impulsively defensive of your judgment on degrading names, because I can only imagine your feelings on my son's name, Wolf / Wolfgang. <br /><br />There's not much I can say on it, since, yes, to most Americans is probably does sound abrasive at first, except that after choosing the name we found out that my grandfather had chosen that name for my father, and didn't get to use it. It is his favorite name, the name he wanted to give to his firstborn son, but didn't.<br />So, it turned out to be a special way to honor that desire. Instead of his firstborn son, its his firstborn son's firstborn grandson's name.<br /><br />Kind of cool, I think, since we had no idea of his interest in the name when we chose it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
