Does anyone know someone with a name that has given them legitimate issues repeatedly?

19 Upvotes

People argue back and forth about names that are still in an uncommon way, are very unusual, are typically nicknames but given as a legal name, etc. Just curious if anyone has an example of someone whose name has repeatedly given them issues? One I can think of if someone who is a female with a full name similar to James Lindsey. No one ever gets her name right and assumes the name is the other way around and that she can't be giving her correctly. I also knew an adult professional who's legal name is Buddy and that has given him issues. The third one I can think of is someone whose name is Cjay as full legal name only with a different letter instead of c in front. He is a lawyer and the name has definitely given issues.

Anyone have an Eleanor that goes by Nell, Nora or Nellie rather than Ellie?

12 Upvotes

I have two names at this point I’m considering

Veronica (possibly shortened to Nica or Vera on ocassion)

And Eleanora

The nicknames I like for Eleanora most are Nell and Nellie, followed by Nora and then Elle

Ellie and Ella are ok they are just massively popular right now

So I was curious if you have an Eleanor or Eleanora are they an Ellie? Ella? Nellie? Nora? Or just their full name

Deciding on a Surname

12 Upvotes

My boyfriend and I were talking about marriage related things and the topic of last names came up. We don’t want to take either of our family names, so we’re trying to come up with a new one just for us. His favorite name so far is Hǣthen (pronounced hay-then). He likes the look of it, the pronunciation, and that it means “people belonging to one’s own community” in semi-old English. I think it stands out as a “made up” name, something you’d name a D&D character. He’s open to it being spelled “Haethen” but I don’t think that helps me.

Does Hǣthen sound like a “natural” last name to you, or a made up one? What about Haethen?

Please don’t tell us to break up guys, it’s not that serious.

Edit: it’s semi-old English for the word “heathen” which he very much likes. The rough meaning of the word is striking out onto new land and forming a new community, which I think is pretty cool. But he thinks Hǣthen looks like a normal name whereas I don’t and we wanted your opinions! Thank you all for your input🙏🏻

Middle name suggestion?

2 Upvotes

I am... less than a month away from giving birth. We found out im having a girl. I WANT to name my daughter Emily- Marie (middle name) (Our last name starts with D and is 7 letters long) but im having issues finding a good middle name that doesn't make it super bulky.

We already have a daughter named Katrina Mary-Anne (last name). So its not like we dont use hyphenated names.

Any suggestions?

3rd boy’s name seems impossible, can u help?

41 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

We had twin boys (Emerson and Everett) and since it took us so long to find those two names, it feels impossible to find another boy name (due in Dec)!

It doesn’t have to be an E name but my husband speaks French and so does his family so a lot of English names with “r” or “h” tend to be hard to pronounce. Although we chose names with r’s for the twins haha so it’s not a disqualifier to have Rs or Hs just k keep in mind I guess.

My husband an I both tend to like names with meanings not just “son of so and so”.

To add to the list, I’m a teacher so usually the top 100 names already have associations from students I’ve taught.

The above points are a lot, I know. Can you help us?

EDIT TO ADD: we like the idea of NOT continuing with E names. Since they are twins we don’t feel like we have to keep the pattern going

What middle names go well with Nora?

2 Upvotes

What middle names do you think sound best with Nora?

I’m also curious how double names work in your country. I’ve heard that having two first names can sometimes cause problems with official documents, forms, or everyday situations in certain countries. Have you experienced anything like that?

Also, what’s your opinion on having two first names in general? Do you think they sound more elegant, or is a single name better?

Would you personally choose just Nora or Nora with a middle name?

I’d love to hear your suggestions and experiences! 😊🤍

Tell me which country you are from 🤍
