Re: Hope
in reply to a message by Lily
I like it, but only as a middle name. I'm generally not a fan of virtue names as first names -- they put too much pressure on the child and are kind of in-your-face to me.I wouldn't assume a Hope or her parents were religious.

I disagree. Many virtue names might put pressure on a child but not Hope. Everyone has hope it's not pressuring a child into being something like Chastity or Joy.

I was about to disagree with you... until I remembered how many times I thought it was crazy that my name was Haven - an ADHD kid.
