So, what name would you have chosen for yourself...in your rl, now...

[ChristmasFairySantAsSLut]

I always loved the names Rebecca/Rebecka and Teresa/Theresa....bearing in mind that in Germany those were unusual names at the time....(seventies)

[Vulgar]

and her golden hair.

not her creepily long neck tho

[OiOi]

I have always hated my name as it's common and typically 70's, wish my mother had chose something like Catherine or Susannah - but those are not names I would choose for my own daughters.

[smartiejakeonachristmascake]

I hated my name when I was a child but now think it's quite cool. It was very unusual in the seventies when I was growing up and I have still only ever met one person with the same name as me.

[TinySocks]

I love my name.

[daizydoo]

I hated my name as it was so common when I was at school. Still is, you can guarantee that there will be at least another person with the same name as me! I always wanted to be called Victoria or Vanessa!

[FlirtyThirty]

I know and Octavia...she hates it. And to be honest, we (her friends) have always thought it pretentious.... One of my least favourite Roman names...

[Boobz]

I am known as a short version of my name and wish I was actually called the longer version (Alexandra). I think it's pretty, if a little posh. But no one calls me it and it would be strange to insist on it now at the age of 29.

[ceeceeanne]

I have a hyphenated name and when my full name is used i like it but dont like the name at all when only first bit is used. used to be considered very scottish (im english) when was little, not so much now would like the idea of a pretty name but not sure id suit it!

[Iklboo]

I always wanted to be 'Rachel' - my name is also typically late 60s/70s - there were 4 of us in my class

[PaddingtonBore]

Jane
Unfrilly, timeless, unshortenable.
I have a horrid, 70s/80s, frilly, with lots of diminutives. oh, and I've no middle name to fall back on.

[AaliyahsFirstXmas]

I'd stick with my name BUT I'd be officially christened the short version of it as I hate the long version and my nan uses the excuse of "that's what you were christened" as a reason for calling me it all the time! lol

[higgle]

As my mother nearly called me Heather or Margaret I'll just be happy with what I've got

[IllegallyBrunette]

I like my name but if I had to of picked another then Louisa.

[mediocrebronze]

My name. I like it

[LadyLauraStandish]

I like my name but I always quite fancied being called Juliana or Eliana.

[tortoiseshellWasMusicaYearsAgo]

Jessica

[tattycoram]

Kate. I have always been a secret Kate.
I do have a very nice classic name though irl, so no complaints really.

[whoingodsnameami]

Mum was going to call me Keeley, but she changed her mind.........wish she had'nt.

[audley]

I was nearly Patricia Winifred, so I'm happy with what I actually got

[llareggub]

I was very nearly Angharad. I wanted to be Annabel after reading Freaky Friday.

[twoluvlysnowmen]

funny, because at dinner time i asked my family to find me a middle name, as i haven't got one.

mt first name start with z, my surname with c.

dd suggested something with an o, so my initials would read ZOC

[FrannyandZooey]

franny

of course

[TooMuchMakkaPakka]

Hey, people want to be called by my name - it's on this thread more than once!! Feeling good about myself, and my parents .

I always wanted to be a Katherine, a name we considered for DD but ruled out because she would get called Kaf which would really wind me up.

[snoopdog]

my dad wanted to call me Zoe,

i quite like it,

but my mum objected as i had 'weird' initials

ZW?

not really 'weird' is it?
