HelpDiana-Catherine
This is the name I have often considered legally changing myself to on multiple occasions. I'm uncertain if I'd actually ever go through with it but regardless I also consider it relatively high in the lineup of naming choices too in terms of possible girl names.
The problem is it's just so long. I would have probably gone through with changing my name to this already if not for the character count: 15 w/ hyphen. And in the US a lot of documents, digitally or on paperwork often don't exceed 12 characters. Case & point: I've read online before from a US Chrysanthemum who often inadvertently has the last M eliminated from her name on documents.
The most obvious solution to this would be to just do FN / MN instead of double Barrel. But if such was the case the Catherine would most often be dropped in favor of only Diana even though I'd be leaning towards desiring "the full set".
I suppose in retrospect it doesn't matter a whole lot because said hypothetical daughter could very well likely drop her Catherine (or Diana) on her own accord anyways as she aged due to inconvenience of a double.
What's your opinion? Both general opinion of the name & thoughts on Diana-Catherine hyphenated vs Diana Catherine in compound vs simply Diana.
Please rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.
