Re: If you could change your first name...

I don't know... At this point, I couldn't imagine having any other name but mine. It is my identity. I remember when I was younger though, I was always changing around my name.Chat Icon I am going to save my favorite name choices for my kids.Chat Icon

I ALWAYS hated that my name was different, I was the ONLY Felicia I knew and I wished I was a Jennifer, Donna or Debbie .. something common

I HATED when they'd have those name bracelets/magnets/keychains and I COULD NEVER get my name because it was too different Chat Icon

BUT now, I really like my name - I would never change it at all, its ME Chat Icon

My name is Donna and I couldn't find those personalized things either. Chat Icon

I like my name fine, it is so much a part of my identity I can't imagine changing it.

I always LOVED the name Felicia, that was actually one of my childhood choices. I think it was because of Felicia from "General Hosipital". I always thought she was so pretty. Felicia, you are lucky to have a pretty unique name and it really suits you!!

Funny I had the most popular name and then they had mys sister and named her something noone had heard of at the time - Brianne. Now it is more popular (Brianna actually) but in 1979 it wasn't. She never could find her name on anything, everyone always mispronounced it, and kids teased her. She always wanted to change her name.

I love her name, the way my parents spelled it and pronounced it.

Nope.... I like my name. I was named after my grandfather. Although it was a popular name in the 70's, I was always the only Stephanie in school.

Re: If you could change your first name...

I would just change it from Jaclyn to Jacqueline. I think Jacqueline is so much prettier, but my mom thought it would be too hard for a little kid to spell. Whatever...everyone calls me Jackie or Jax anyhow! Chat Icon

I remember as a kid, I was begging my mom to name my sister (who is 10 years younger) Stephanie. Chat Icon I don't think it was enough of an irish name for my parents; they chose Kathleen and Eileen for both their daughters.Chat Icon

Flee - don't I know your pain - probably better than ANYONE on here!! EVERYONE thought I was a guy and was constantly mispelling my name and calling me Michael. It was, and still is, a pain in the you know what - even though I appreciate my name more now.
I would always "change" my name and tell my family that I would only answer to that. My two favorites were Abby and Jamie - guess that's why I had to marry a Jamie!Chat Icon
