Oh dea.

Could depend on what your last name begins with.

sweetnitanitro · 31/10/2009 15:28

Is that the whole name or did you accidentally press 'post message' when you were halfway through typing?

PestoPumpkinMonster · 31/10/2009 15:29

Noah?

How do you pronounce it? Deer or Dee?

Either way I don't much like it

BOOdeniites · 31/10/2009 15:31

just looks like Dead without the d good Halloween name

I call DD Dea/Dia, but that's only because she couldn't pronounce her own name as a toddler, and we sort of adopted her attempts as a nickname. Wouldn't have done it as a proper name though (sorry!)

This is one of DD'e friends, given her background I had assumed it was an Indian name?

I knew a girl at school called Derdrie nn DeeDee - could you have it as a nn for something? it just seems a touch incomplete iyswim?

FlappyTheBat · 31/10/2009 15:46

Add another e and it's lovely

D.E.A. is also the Drug Enforcement Agency in the U.S. Sorry, that was my first thought on it....

I think it's Danish or Swedish?

latin for goddess.

MrsBadger · 31/10/2009 16:37

how would you pronounce it?

if it's the latin as suggested by Cloelia it's pronounced Day-a, which no-one will guess in a million years
