Re: Names you thought you'd hate but don't

María. It's the second most common name in my country.
We also have combinations like Ana María, María José, María Dolores, María Teresa, etc. They're considered as compound names, but the bearers usually go by María.
At first, I disliked that it was too common; however, I found its charm on the pronunciation and writing.
