I am planning on using the name
Josephine to honor my mother. Most of the time I like to use honouring names in the middle name slot becuase I don't like kids to live in a shadow. However, would it really be that bad if I used it as a first name considering
Jo is my mother's middle name, and I would be using
Josephine as a first name? The two wouldn't be confused when people called their name, and
Josephine isn't exactly the same as using
Jo. Am I making it too complicated?
