[Opinions] Re: Jemima
in reply to a message by Isla
Thanks for the link.
We have thought about Gemma, but Gemma Garnet is to matchy for my taste (since garnet is a gem) and we would have to find a third name for a Hebrew name.
I also kind of agree with Clara, that by naming a white child Jemima, I would be going against the stereotype. We also live in Ohio, so I think the only association here is with the brand name...
I have lots of food for thought though, thanks!
