I actually like it. Some of the virtue names are too out there for me (
Verity,
Amity, even
Patience), but this is one is nice without being too common imo.
I actually know two women named
Mercy. One is Filipino and has a daughter named
Faith. :) The other is from Nigeria, her mn is
Fatima, and is a good friend of mine, very sweet and extremely smart so I have good assocations with the name, too.
Edited to add: My good friend
Mercy, since she's been in the U.S., has had a hard time with people thinking her name is
Marcy. lol
And also she's a nurse so people constantly think it's cute to call her Nursie
Mercy. Luckily she has a sense of humor. :b
