Why would anyone give a girl a lifetime of explanations as a kind of crazy christening present, like the curse on Sleeping Beauty? Names like Francis and Leslie are losing ground, presumably because of their unisex nature ... why add another to the list? It's so easy to just drop the -h and let her educate people when they get it wrong.

Or, of course, to name her Nora, Noreen or Nerina :)
