A previous post got me to thinking about my own name. I have been told one thing or another. I've had people argue with me about the pronunciation of my name!

Angelique

For the sake of ease, I just go with what is probably a very American version. Ann-juh-leek. My grandmother pronounced it as Ahn/Awn-zhoo-leek. My French teacher also pronounced it about the same.

Ideas? Heh. :P

What do you think of the nickname Cobie (or Coby) for a girl?

I just started watching the show "How I Met Your Mother" , and one of the actresses goes by this name (Cobie Smulders). Her full name is Jacoba Fransisca Smulders.

I think it's a cute variant of her not-as-cute first name, Jacoba, but I don't think I would ever use it. If I was her, I would probably have everyone call me Fransisca. It sounds more feminine and a little more grown-up. Thoughts?

ETA: How does everyone feel about Jacoba? I like the pronounciation (yah-CO-bah), but I can't get over the fact it looks too much like the name it's derived from, Jacob, which has always been a very masculine name to me.

Which nn do you prefer for Matilda, Matti or Tilly?

Vote on my names! (and a question)

[areawoman.livejournal.com]

Most of the middle names have some sort of family connection. I'm due in May, so lots of time to decide.

Also...my favorite name is Emerson. I've wanted to name a girl that for ages (since long before my son came along -- it was our girl choice for him). But...a good friend of mine just had a baby girl and named her Emerson :(. They call her "Emme" and I would use the nickname "Emma." Should I just pick something else? Would you be mad if a friend of yours named her baby the same thing you just named yours?

Updated favourites!
