HelpRe: Edna
in reply to a message by Kinga
It's my grandmother's name. I've never liked it. She's never liked it. My grandpa never liked it and always called her by her first and middle (Edna Jean) to sort of feminize it...or something. The only reason she has that name is because her parents had no sons to name after her father (Edward James).
My grandma is one of the most important people in my life, and I would like to name a daughter for her someday, but I wouldn't use Edna or Jean to do it. (I've never cared for Jean either, AND it's the middle name of my mother and a cousin, and I don't want it to look like it's for anyone other than my grandmother), so I plan on using Edith Jane, assuming I can get my still hypothetical future SO to agree!
At any rate, I have trouble seeing it as spunky and cute, and I really hate Eddie.
