[Opinions] Re: Zoe
in reply to a message by Silverblaze
Usually I have a major problem with pn, but I have never had a problem with Zoe. I would like to think that maybe its just a SD thing. But maybe thats just what I would like to think because I also love the name and would like to use it someday (however, I am still waiting to see what my favorites list looks like after my boyfriend cuts every name he doesnt like which will most likely be most of them.)
Anyway, I say if you like it, use it. I understand not wanting your daughter to go through that, but would you rather have her be just another Maddison? Her friends and family will know it and get it right, and frankly, thats all that matters. I have had my name (Kristina) mis-pn by so many people, I just let them call me Kristin or Karsten or whatever else they can think of. And Zo isnt horrible, kind of a cute nn I havent thought of before.

Yeah, you have a point about a kid needing a fairly unique name. And once in a while I'll call Zoe "Zo" as a nn, though it's mostly "ZoZo".
