I like unique names too. Not SOOO unique that they are like, totally wacky, but just different and not very common. Jackson is becoming fairly popular and it's annoying, haha. I've seen/heard of a lot of kids being named Jackson lately. But at the time of naming him, I hadn't ever met a dog or a person named Jackson. |
why thank you.. it is pronounced like it is spelled.. the shin of your leg and a hard j almost like jaw without the w sound. But.. I get called ginger, Cindy and the Spanish say a h sound for the j. It's all good. I butcher names that are new to me so I can't complain. The thing is growing up with a different name made me more exposed.
The names I picked for my daughters had meanings. Amy means beloved, and Karrie -- which is a form of Carolina --same as Colleen. They complained, like you, that they had too many friends with the same name.
oh well.... what can you do lol
A couple of names I wanted.. Jessica Denise for one.. I could not use because I had friends that had dogs with that name. lol I should have used them because the friends moved, and my daughter would never had know she was named after a dog. lol
