HelpRe: Name advice - baby girl
in reply to a message by geocorps
Is there a reason you want a variant and not just Asha? Is that grandmother still alive and lives nearby and you don't want to cause confusion about whether you're talking about the grandma or the baby, or do you want a longer name? Or does it have a connotations I don't know about? (I just think Asha is perfect already, but it's not popular where I live so maybe it's actually dated and I just don't know :P)

Yes, we actually have a lot of reasons, probably too many haha. My primary concern is pronunciation. The name is supposed to be pronounced AH-shah, and I fully expect a bunch of people saying ASH-ah (like the tree), which would annoy me to no end. It's a slight concern of my husband's as well. He mostly doesn't want to do a direct naming because she's still alive, and he feels weird about it, which is fair.
We also both want longer names so there's more options for nicknames.(We both have short names and no nicknames :/ )
