Re: Spanish vs. Trendy Conflict... Need Help!
in reply to a message by Krista
You caught me! I have a fetish with hyphens! I have 2 middle names (as do my 4 sisters) but they are not hyphenated. I always wished they were, because having two middle initials was always so much trouble! (You run into SO many more problems than could be imagined, and having a hyphenated middle name would have solved a lot of the problems!)
I also live in the South, and I've noticed that hyphenating is kind of the "thang" down here. Katie-Jane, Gracie-Ann, Laura-Jean... but now that you mention it, I could kinda see how hyphenation could seem snooty...
I am REALLY greedy when it comes to names-- I love so many! I want at least one of my children to have three names because it is a family tradition.... at the same time, I don't want to seem stuck-up, so maybe I'll sacrifice and go with two names (F&M) lol...
