I would like to know if how many of you don't like the name given to them by their parents? Did you ask them why that name was given to you? If you were to choose, what name would you like to have?

I am very pleased, with my name, a gift from my parents. I do not want to have another name.

I really like my name. it's a bit different and there was never anyone else in school witht he same name and I don't know anyone personally who shares it with me. My real name is Fay (without an 'e') and the alternative that my parents had in mind was Anya, and I would have been extremely happy with that choice too. i like things that are just that little bit different from the norm, because I forget how many vicky's, sarah's, Amanda's and Louise's I know!

He he he! You're so right! It's very nice if you have a name different from that of others and not common too. That's good! At least your parents know how to choose something that they think their child will like someday. :)
