HelpAmy. (m)
in reply to a message by LadyBug
I bring this up a lot: I'm a Kellie. Not a Kelly but a Kellie. Believe me, I know what a pain in the arse it is to have to spell your name out for everybody (which is magnified by the fact that I have a somewhat common surname that's usually spelled another way than mine.) Honouring with Amey is a nice thought, but Amy honours just as much, I think, and saves the kid a lifetime of spelling her name out.

I know what spelling your name out can be. I'm Laurie and eight times out of ten I'm asked whether my name is spelled Lori or Laurie, someone even tried to spell it Lauri once! But that's mostly because so many people pronounce Laurie like lohr-ee instead of law-ree. So I can definitely see where Amy would be easier all around. I just sometimes look at Amy and say "what a simple looking name" but then I say it aloud and find it's beauty once again.
