[Opinions] Re: Susannah
in reply to a message by guru
Susannah Ruth is a wonderful name! And even if she does die young, she'll know what's going to happen: that should be comforting.
Lucky you, by the way. I was brought up to believe that Beatrice is an inconvenient name, always getting shortened to nasty things like Beattie and Beat! My mother went by Bea whenever she could, but some people just didn't follow her lead. I really wanted to use her name when I had children, and did; but if she'd been alive at the time she'd never have let me get away with it.
