Anyone else wish this community was available when their preants named them?

i know i sure do!

My parents weren't very original... i once read in this baby name book abt another name book called

Beyond Jennifer and Jason  frankly, i got quite a kick out of the title, because ironically enough those are the names my parents picked for my brother and I, sure I was named after my Grandomother, and my brother- well they just liked Jason  i guess, but i wish they chose something a little bit different.

I wish my parents had looked at some names books or this community too. They couldn't agree on what to name me, my mom wanted to name me Emma but my dad hated it, and if I was a boy, my dad wanted to name me Guy but my mom hated it. They compromised and named me Mary Linda. Mary after my mom's sister, Linda after my dad's sister. It's nice to name a child after relatives, but I think Mary and Linda are pretty dull names!

Mary is a beautiful name. It makes me think of Princess Mary (http://images.bt2.metropol.dk/229/229924/229924_large.jpg). Not dull or boring at all but simple and elegant. :)

thank you :) Mary was the most popular girl's name until the 1950's or so. I guess it is sort of unique in a way, I don't know any other girls my age named Mary.
