    Seriously...I think Charlotte, I've always liked that name. I like my middle name Elaine so Charlotte Elaine. Tammie is just plain. :happy:

    I'm fine with Alyssa as my first name, but my middle name (Kay) I've always thought was boring.

    But I honestly can't think of anything better for a middle name, though lol

    I hated my name when I was a little kid, cuz I thought it was an old persons name (I was named after my grandma). Now that I'm older, I honestly love it. I think it fits me well. It's Molly by the way.

    I am another middle name user, but that was the way I was raised. My middle name is Joanne, I would have preferred Joanna... but it's a moot point now as I go by Jo. I like my name that way.

    If I had to change it, I would probably change it to Jane, or Mariposa, but that's what I want to name my daughters.

    My name is okay... a little unique, but I was given the masculine spelling of it (oy vey, ... dumb parents!).

    My screen name, however, is what I prefer. It's why I use it.

    I like my name as well and it fits me pretty well....Gayle.

    If I had to make a change, I would change to Lily. I wanted to name my daughter Lily but it didn't go with the last name and she would have been teased for her entire life....so I compromised and went with Gillian (pronounced "jillian").

    I'm obviously a Jayne. Don't really like it.

    I would change my first name if it wasn't also my mom's and my grandmother's and my great-grandmother's first names as well. I'd probably just drop it all together and make my maiden name my middle name.

    My middle name is never pronounced properly (doesn't bother me that much), but I wouldn't change it, but I never use it.

    Catarina.

    Which is why I'm PDG, because my other grandma used to call me Catarina Patas De Gallina.

    Usually I go by Cathy, sometimes Cat (my bestie calls me Cathilda).

    Anyone going by either of those names or any variation thereof is crazy. Trust me. We all know this and we all get along. :drinker:

    In the UK you can change your name online at http://www.deedpoll.org.uk/

    Since I found that out I have often found myself on there considering changing my name to something else or maybe adding a mad middle name!

    My first name is Martine, and I don't like that very much. Most people forget it and call me Martina, I don't even bother correcting them anymore. So I have considered changing my name to that before since it's what most people call me anyway.

    I like my name now, but as a kid I wanted a more feminine name, like Maja or Madeleine. I never wanted a name that doesn't start with M, though, since my dad, mom and sister has names beginning with M, it's sort of our thing. Now I think my name is short and precise, without being connected to any particular personality traits, if that makes sense. The only thing I would change is how it's pronounced in English. Mona becomes Moan-a, which is annoying. But with the Norwegian pronounciation it becomes Moo-na, don't know if that's any better. But my sister is even more unlucky, "Maren" completely falls apart in English.
    My pet peeve when it comes to names is using y in names, other than as the last letter. It just looks so misspelled to me, it's probably related to how I can tell how a word is spelled by picturing it or writing it down.
