Help[Opinions] Re: Eileen
in reply to a message by humblebee
I used to think it was dumb because my sister, whose middle name it is, made fun of it a few times. She'd say, "EiLEEEEN", drawing out the second syllable. She did the same thing with Maureen---MauREEEEN.

My niece is Maureen, nn Mo. Her mother (my SIL) wanted to name her after the most beautiful woman she could think of -- Maureen O'Hara. :-) She's in her early twenties now.
Anyway, my SIL is a grade school teacher and has noticed two or three Maureens in the last few years. They live in a mid-size city on the U.S. west coast. This is a long winded way of saying that it only takes one brave soul naming their child Eileen or Maureen for others to notice. (At least that's what I choose to believe. :-P )
