...bear with me!

I know Dawn might evoke images of middle-aged women (all of the Dawns I know are in their 40s and 50s) BUT I saw a picture in a magazine this week with of a beautiful sunrise and the word "dawn" and it made me think about the name in a new way. Could it be a new "nature" name along the lines of Willow, Sage, River etc?!

Oof, that's a bit flipping harsh, Maiden! Shock

Am feeling pretty relieved that I changed my username, now...

@YouBloodyWhat

When I'm buying a coffee and have to give my name, they often write 'Don' on my cup. Not cool!

But Don is a cooler name than Dawn. You should be happy! Grin

You're right, I should just go with it Grin

Ooh, I was feeling all positive until Xmasbaby commented! Wink

I'm 47, btw.

And would love it if the name got a resurgence. Though as Luxury pointed out, it does all depend on how it's said. When I'm buying a coffee and have to give my name, they often write 'Don' on my cup. Not cool!
