The
Name Game
When I went to grade school, there
were at least three other girls in my class with the same name. However, they
were spelt differently.
I’m: Vicki
Those girls were: Vikki, Vickie, Vicky
Later on and when I thought about
it, Susan, Cathy, and Kathy names dominated, as did variations with full names
or short names, like Katie, Katy, Kat, Cathie, Cathleen, Suzie, Suzy.
So when I was pregnant with #1son,
Handsome and I struggled over naming him, even though we didn't know he would be a boy. I’d toss out something. “No.” And more. “Nope.”
