If you could change your name, what would it be?

Mine would be Gabriella.

Lindsay. It has a friendly and familiar ring to it.

Eve. Simple, pretty. Underused in my age group.

Chloe

I’d like to be a Sarah. I have a name that stood out as a child, and I don’t like the sound of it. Sarah sounds soft and quiet whilst also being classy and professional.

Having had this user name for well over a decade now, I would probably go with Susie. (Formal name Suzanna) or my middle name.

What a beautiful and original middle name! 😂
That's excellent.

@Ameanstreakamilewide DD's husband tells her sometimes that she's in 'Margaret Asda' mood! ;-)
My BIL, on the other hand, rather fancied being called Bobby Bubbles when he was little.. :-0

I'm good with my first name, it's my (very plain) middle name that has always irked me. I'd like to change that to my great grandmother's name, Constance.

I have an unusual name that people struggle to spell and pronounce, and I feel that it contributed to me being labelled 'weird' growing up (disclaimer: I am a bit weird). It never occurred to me that I could change my name when I grew up and now that I'm 50 it's much too late, but I wish I'd been called Kate. Kate is classic, easy to spell and pronounce, and can be sexy (like Mossy) or girl next door (like Winslet).
