I could see a president ita. It's unusual without having unfortunate connotations. I think of Ginger as more problematic. I like my name, but most people associate it with Gilligan's Island or cocker spaniels.
I kissed him, and I told him that I loved him. And I killed him.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

They'd probably have to pass a bill to get it capitalized correctly.

As a Lisa, I understand dealing with a MILLION freakin' people sharing your name and someone not being able to find you by yelling out your name in public.
This problem is solved by my DH calling me by my maiden name pretty much mostly.
And yet, it's not swaying me from choosing a very popular girls' name for the new baby, either. I'm so contrary.

pppfffttttbbbbb.
We're still swaying between Elizabeth and Olivia. Is alliterating Owen and Olivia too cheesy? I think it might be.
For the record, chilli cheese Pringles are fucking fantastic! They are the new crack of the chip world.

I don't think so. Olivia is a great name.

I probably shouldn't stress over the alliteration. Seeing how I'm a twin Lisa/Lori combo I've lived through worse. Even worse--our middle names being Faye/Kaye. I think my mother drank a lot.
It's like that damned McBroom childrens' book series where all the kids names come out in one line: willjillhesterchesterpeterpollytimtommarylarryandlittleclarinda. *shudder*

Olivia is beautiful.
It's only cheesy if you have third and fourth and fifth kids named Otto and Ophelia and Omar.

My real name is Virginia. I'm named for my mother who was named for her grandmother. I think one of y'all needs to take up the Virginia torch. It's a perfectly cromulent name. It's not particularly strange but it's never been very popular.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It all depends where you're standing. I was teased about my name, so I see unfortunate connotations.
But I love it, so I don't care.
