Grave

[4GreenApples]

If you came across this name written down, would you assume it was a typo (probably for Grace if so), or would you assume that Grave is the actual name?

I think the child is a girl. Mum has provided the spelling. I’m wondering if it would be horribly rude to ask “did you mean Grace?”..... because after all there’s some very unique names around these days....

I'd check if it is Grace. Better than asking whether she has called her child after a hole that dead people go in.

Is the child British If she is I'm 99.99% certain it has to be a misprint. Surely not one would call their child Grave.
However if the child is not British or English speaking Grave could be a perfectly acceptable name in their culture.

Well, V and C are next to each other on the keyboard, so it could easily be a typo. Unless it's a mashup of the trendy name Gray and a feminine name from something like Maeve or Genevieve.

Why do you need to know?

Perhaps it's pronounced Gra vay. Like a posh pronunciation of gravy

Surname?

Surely it must be Grace!

If the child’s name really is Grave, I can guarantee that you won’t be the first person to ask whether it’s actually Grace.

Gray?

Are you making something with the name on? Maybe ask and say you just like to double check as auto correct has corrected names in the past?

I like unusual names but if the child's name is Grave I think it's a bit too far

@TroysMammy gra-vey has made me laugh a lot!!

It's gotta be Grace though hasn't it??

the v and c are next to each other on the keyboard so you can see how its easy to type grave rather than grace so I would assume Grace

I asked the mum.

It was a typo - child is Grace, not Grave!

Phew!

Lol

Good! I've seen plenty of names on here that I'm not keen on, but Grave would have been the worst!

So glad the baby wasn't called Grave! Thanks for letting us know OP
