HelpRe: Joan
in reply to a message by vigdis
A little OT but I feel like everybody has been reading my family tree for the last few posts...my Nana was Joan, my Pops middle name was Edwin (which I practically never hear) and one of my nephews is Spencer. Sorry to go off tangent but it seemed weird to me!
Anyway like I said, Joan was my Nanas name and so I always think of her first when I hear it. She was a very strong woman so I think of it as a very strong name, but I've never found it to be particularly attractive. I would love to hear of a little Joan though, and I may consider using it as a middle name to honor Nana if I have a daughter.
Her full name was Joan Ida, just out if interest, and she absolutely hated her middle name - she said it sounded like the name of a cow! Her mothers name was Margaret Elsie, which I think is quite sweet. Sorry, I couldn't help myself from going off on tangents here!
