Glad you are not using it.

Jesus Christ.
I was the one who started the McKayla thread.
I genuinely like the name... not a wind up.
I get the point ... it’s a dreadful name... yadda yadda yadda
I am not using it and exploring other options
Glad to see people are still enjoying dwelling on it Grin

@MoaningMinnie1 - yes it does indeed. Would be lovely for twins, the other could be Candida Grin

SemperIdem · 24/08/2019 00:50

Grin enjoyed this. I too have had a glass or wine or two @joystir59

MoaningMinnie1 · 23/08/2019 23:39

Really Nation? I thought that meant dark tarry stools containing occult blood. :-)

NationMcKinley · 23/08/2019 23:30

How about Melaena? Always thought that had a lovely ring to it

moonpiggle · 23/08/2019 23:27

😂 ffs

JoxerGoesToStuttgart · 23/08/2019 23:24

Well that’s definitely “special” Grin

Glad to see it’s not a genuine name.

Not sure how this gets anyone back though? Confused

joystir59 · 23/08/2019 23:21

I like Senna

How does Saugacia sound like a constipation remedy?

OP posts:
MoaningMinnie1 · 23/08/2019 23:18

Peanutbuttericecream
It’s sounds bloody awful, like the name for a constipation remedy.

Senna is a far nicer name ;).

If someone wanted the opposite, Imo or Dium might suit.

AreWeAnywhereNear · 23/08/2019 23:17

Thank god for that 🤦🏻‍♀️

You never know these days...

joystir59 · 23/08/2019 23:14

Saw-GAY-see-a, I think

OP posts:
Letthemysterybe · 23/08/2019 23:12

HMM it depends.......Where is the emphasis placed?

Is it just equal Saw-gay-see-a
Or Saw-GAY-see-a
Or Saw-gay-SEE-a

joystir59 · 23/08/2019 23:09

Ok, I admit, its a pure wind up. I made the name up when I was a teenager writing silly stories. Saugacia was a character- she was a flea who lived on someone's scalp. I just wanted to get my own back on all those threads when someone proposes calling their poor child something truly hideous, 'McKayla' being a recent example. Sorry everyone, please forgive me. It's Friday, I've had a glass of wine and I was a bit bored.

CarrieBlu · 23/08/2019 23:08

And I agree with all PP, it’s bloody awful. Looks and sounds ugly. Sorry OP!

CarrieBlu · 23/08/2019 23:07

Sounds like something a supermarket would name their cheapo sausages to make them look fancier.

SallyWD · 23/08/2019 23:07

It's really awful. An ugly sound and looks like sausage.

AreWeAnywhereNear · 23/08/2019 23:05

🙈 I always try and be positive but OP are you having a laugh/pregnancy hormones/insane?

joystir59 · 23/08/2019 23:05

Pronounced Saw-gay-see-a

OP posts:
SpinsterOfArts · 23/08/2019 22:58

Sagacia, as an invented virtue-name? Confused

Vasya · 23/08/2019 22:51

Truly terrible. Sorry!

Alloftit · 23/08/2019 22:51

God that’s truly bloody hideous

1066vegan · 23/08/2019 22:50

Looks too much like sausage.

theministryhasfallen · 23/08/2019 22:45

How are you pronouncing it?

Saw-gay-see-a?
Saw-garcia?
