HelpRe: Friends' Birth Announcement
in reply to a message by Peacemonger
... Why?!
First, Scotland is a real country. If you're going to name your child after a country (a la China, Ireland, etc.), at least spell it correctly!
Second, Scotland has quite a masculine sound. I can't think of anything feminine about "Scot" or "Scotty." You can't just make it feminine by replacing -land with -lynn! (Although I guess you can, considering that your friend did so.)
I'm sorry if I come across as insulting, considering that this is your friend, but... this is pretty bad. At least the child will have Kaye to fall back on.
