Re: Derry Girls full names and siblings
I like Erin and Clare, but only once. I like Anne but not Anna, Michele but not Michelle, Louise but not Louisa, Niall and James.
Clare Clare could well have been a mistake by whoever was christening her. I knew a woman named Clodagh, and she explained that her parents had chosen her names very carefully. Also very carefully, and on the other side of that piece of paper, they had written Clodagh because it was one of the places they planned to visit in their next holiday to Ireland. And the priest looked at the wrong side of the paper and named her Clodagh, and Clodagh she remained.
