Help[Opinions] Re: WDYT of Georgia?
in reply to a message by ashley82290
Georgia is my name and I love it. It is classic, strong and something most people have heard before, yet it isn't common.
I don't know where you are. I'm in the US and I'm old. The only thing I want to let you know is that you will encounter people who don't know how to pronounce it if they just see the name written down. You will hear "george-EE-ah," most likely. You also will encounter people (usually young people) who don't know how to spell Georgia, and you will have to spell it out for them. The spelling out is a relatively new phenomenon. When I was young, I did not have to spell it out, but now there are many people who do not know the spelling.
My mother gave me her maiden name as my middle. Much later, she commented, "Why didn't I name you Georgia Louise -- that sounds nice!" Of your combos I like them in this order:
Georgia Louise
Georgia Mary
Georgia Grace.
