My dad has said that he regrets not giving my youngest sister the middle name Kathleen. They were torn between Kathleen and Susanne, and they went with Susanne in honor of my mother. But my sister came out with red hair and a firecracker personality, and my dad thinks the Irish-flavored Kathleen would have fit her better.

My mom has said she regrets calling me by my middle name because it has caused so many problems for me over the years. They had settled on the names Laura and Elizabeth and felt like Laura Elizabeth flowed better than Elizabeth Laura, but still wanted to call me Elizabeth. Now she thinks they should have gone with Elizabeth Laura after all, it would have been easier on me.

I agree wholeheartedly, incidentally.
