Im legally changing my name....

[ThatFishGirl6231]

i like erin it sounds very professional and like someone who would be respectful.

my name is kirra (pronounced keera, NOT KURA), and when i was in like 1st-3rd grade i think i wanted to be named Iris or something but now i love my name but it’s annoying when Starbucks always writes it as Kiara, Kira, Keira or Kara.

My father knew a guy whos name was Bill Butt. What a horrible name. @Colin_T @Barry Tetra @Sunnyspots

My brother in law had a teacher whos name was Anita. Then she got married. Her husbands name was Tissue. So her married name was Anita Tissue. Tragic

Our nation wide radio station has a radio host called Anita Bathe. Every time I would drive home from work with the radio on I would have a little chuckle when her name was announced.

Wow, she must have REALLY loved that guy.

Yeah....if I was her I'd have kept her maiden name. Not worth all the horrible puns. Unless he was some kinda major hot dude idk

When my youngest sister was 5, she wanted to change her name to Tiger!

I have several ideas, just trying to finalize my decision and find the name I feel the most comfortable with. Erin is my number one choice, but I have a lot of love for the following, Mia, Delaney, Kaia, and Raven. Thoughts?

Erin is very nice, I agree it sounds very professional! I think Delaney is really really lovely too though!

My husband is Welsh so he wanted his children to have one Welsh name. We decided that if they were boys, the Welsh name would be their middle name so they wouldn't be teased at school. Girls didn't seem to be teased nearly as much as boys so girls would have the Welsh name as their first. Both children were boys so their first names are conventional and boring non-teaseable names.

I wanted my son's middle name to be Zappa, but got talked out of it on the grounds it might be a problem in his career (???). He's now a fork lift driver.

My cousin had a son between my two. His first name is a long established boys' name but his middle name is Zaphod. At least they didn't include Beeblebrox......

My younger brother wanted to change his name to Bones lol, bc he is fast, like Bones in Ferdinand
when I was 4-6 I dreamt of my name being princess pony Dora, but I think my (internet name that's similar to my real name) Isabelle, is just fine.

Yeah, I hear the forklift industry can be tough on people named after experimental/satirical rock/jazz musicians. I decided not to name my daughter "Yankovic" for much the same reason.
