Help[Opinions] Re: it's pronounced HAY-mish not HAM-ish
in reply to a message by Lethe
Where do you live? I wouldn't have thought it was a strange enough name to get you teased at school.

I live in Glasgow, Scotland, i.e. not in the Western Isles or very North where I guess you might see more Hamishes. Here I've never encountered one. It's not just that it would be strange, I had a teddy bear called Hamish, I was aware of the name, but it's linked a bit with the stereotypical image of a highlander.
As I said though very Scottish names like Archie, Lachlan, Finlay, Fraser, Murdo, even Jock, is the new trend among a certain group in society.
