Desirae?

I really love this name but I haven't had a good reaction when I said it to my cousin (but then she can be very butchy about names) then I had a very positive reaction when I mentioned it to a friend (but she likes 'weird' names, the stranger the better she told me Hmm )

Thought I'd test reactions on here instead

There's a potato? ok I'm guessing it's a no then

Shock porn sites?! Oh dear

The spelling came from a French baby name site btw

Is it pronounced like the potato? If it is, then would be better spelt that way i.e. desiree. The -rae looks wrong.

Anyway... I don't like it at all I'm afraid.

Don't like it.

Googled it to check your spelling - I would have initially though Desiree with an accent. The top two links I got (for desirae) on google were porn sites......

Isn't it a type of potato?
