    Re: How do you feel about your name?

    Well, when my family moved to Israel, 13 years ago, my classmates couldn't pronounce my name.
    So they shortened my name from Gleb, to Gal, which means "wave" in Hebrew.
    I hated it, so they head to learn pronouncing my full name.

      Oh that's so exciting! Congrats on your up and coming niece! I honestly think she will be okay, people seem a lot more accepting of it now. I'm with you though! Obviously the parents are doing something wrong if their children act that way. It makes me terrified for when my son goes to school..

        I don't like my first name.
        I am a woman in a mans body and I hate being in the wrong body. I want out of this body. It's like a prison cell.

        I used to be known as AdamKane in these parts.

            I love my first name. It's an old name (originated around 13th - 14th century) and means "protector of the holy place".
            "The idea is to be whispering, and not to gain the attention from the flock, but to get attention from the individuals. That's why I relate it to whispering. It's not something you can put on a big scale; you can't get sheep to attend to it. You need to have people who can stand for themselves. It is important to have a lot of space for yourself to be able to grow strong branches, which can stand in the most extreme surroundings."

              Hate my name. I have a traditionally male name from the bible, that was popular in the 80's.

              The year Free Willy came out was hell for me, and hitting dating age in small circles where that name had been popular was very awkward.

              L has repeatedly asked me if I want to change it, but nothing ever feels right. It's like cat's secret names...anything worth calling myself would take way too long.

                  Just out of curiosity do people still use a mother's maiden name as a middle name? I've heard it was once popular and I'm wondering why it fell out of favor.

                    I have a friend who's middle name is "umpherston" because of that tradition.

                      I like my name. from what I've collected, it means "Pool", "Lake", or "Waterfall". I like the "Waterfall" part of it. Waterfalls are graceful! It also means "Ruddy-Complected" which I suppose is alright. I always think of rosey cheeks when I think of 'ruddy-complected'.

                        Awwwww....thanks . That's what L says too, so maybe that's part of why I haven't changed it.

                        My middle name is like that. I didn't know it was a thing.

                          I am not fond of my names as it is worded in English, but I love the meaning of my full name, first-middle-last.

                            My name is Serenity Alexis. For years I hated my name, now I like it. I wanted to be named after my parents when I was little, but now I appreciate that they named me what they did. My sister is named after both my parents, so I am the unique one in the family. ^^

                              Serenity is such a pretty name.

                                I wish my name was easier for people to spell and pronounce. and that my last name didn't have.......unfortunate associations
