babynamesSo I have a funny little comment to tell you all that my dad made about me changing the baby's name to Faith. So right now I'd like it to be Faith Liliana or Faith Olivia. Originally it was going to be Liliana but due to recent events and the split with my abusive bf I feel like Faith is so much more appropriate.
So my dad absolutely hates it. He said in the 60s apparently drug addicts named their babies Faith. I started laughing at him when he said that. Whether that WAS the case or not, its not the 60s anymore and when I and anyone I've asked think of the name Faith, they think of religion, belief in something positive, something good...not drug addicts!
What do you all think? I just had to tell you all that.

The point being, I think he is just trying to discourage you by using a frame of reference that you can't question since you weren't born at the time.
