The initials HOE

I can't use the names can I? Or will no one notice? Would you still use the names if they meant having initials that spelt out Hoe?

People don't really notice initials. I don't see any difference between HOE and DIG, were you perhaps thinking of the word HO?

Mind you my first DH's initials were ARSS, even with the spelling difference it made me giggle when I first realised. No one else had ever noticed/mentioned it before. Smile

I wouldn't.

It's a garden implement. Confused

Just squeeze in another middle name.

If it's a girl, giver her a second middle name beginning with "P", will spell HOPE then instead.

I wouldn't be bothered by these initials although some combinations of letters could be iffy.

Sorry i just snorted a little when i saw the title of the thread... it might be a bad sign! Wink

Add another middle name... or don't - I don't think anyone actually notices initials.

WanderingTrolley1 · 28/04/2016 17:36

I wouldn't, either.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 28/04/2016 17:38

I wouldn't. Add a name.

Obliviated · 28/04/2016 17:44

Adding a name is a good idea. Lovely I thought, I'll add Rose, a grandparents name. It spelt HORE Grin

I think I will just add Ann. Goes with everything.

Thanks all.
