Re: Leanne or Myra?
I do think it would be a little extreme to only be naming a daughter Myra if you have absolutely no ties to the UK or desire to go there. And I did look at the comments, and there were a few people from the UK who felt the same, and some who had never heard of her, so there must be variation, though I wouldn't know for sure. I did notice that hundreds of girls in the UK were named Myra within the past decade. While I think it is horrible to name a child after a monster, which Mz. Hindley seems to have been, I also don't think people should give them the glory of letting them occupy their brains constantly, though it's understandable.

" I also don't think people should give them the glory of letting them occupy their brains constantly" I so agree with this 100%!
