Thoughts on Keturah? Do you know any? Nickname ideas?

OP posts:

Not fussed, and nicknames should come naturally, not pre-planned.

That might be correct for you @eurgh , but that's not my experience. As a child of a pastor and with friends who are pastors or pastors wives, I've never heard it mentioned at meals or in conversation. As a chemical engineer it's not really the most super dupa interesting chemical out on the street or in the lab as far as I know. I don't think that this needs to be an argument as per @Jasmina456 . Is this how threads on this section often develop? Someone mentions one potential nickname and then it impossible to consider the positives of a name, or give hope to the OP? Shame

@TeaAddict235 no, I'm not arguing, I just find it difficult to believe that you'd never discuss drugs/dangers of drugs etc with children/teens etc. Well done though for being so high brow and too academic for such basic matters. Anyway I'm not going to derail the thread anymore.

In a way I prefer it spelt Katurah if that’s an option. Looks nicer and gets rid of the Ket connection. Also more nickname potential like Kat, although Kitty would be my favourite for a nickname - love it.
Katurah really growing on me!

Oh it reminds me of uhura from Star Trek, I just realised!

What about Kesta?

deptfordgirl · 20/06/2018 02:08

I know one little girl called it. I do like it but prefer Keziah which I think is quite similar.

Yep looks lovely but all the points above should be considered!!!

I'd go for Kerensa or Keziah.

FizzyGreenWater · 22/06/2018 13:29

Or possibly Kidderminster
