[Opinions] Re: Names that my mom considered for my middle name
in reply to a message by KK
It's funny how some parents are so worried about people thinking they are copying someone. I remember my mom telling me that she scrapped her favorite name idea for me, just because she heard someone else had a similar-sounding name (not even the SAME name) for their kid.
Interesting story about the blanket being the thing that sealed the deal. That's a story to tell the grandkids. My middle name was chosen arbitrarily too. But Katherine Marie is a fine name; it's a bit retro, which is nice. Marie used to be everyone's favourite middle name option, but it's fading from use now.
Katherine Elisa is probably my favorite option. Katherine Eliza would be nice too.

I knew so many girls in school whose middle names were
Marie. I had a lot of friends, with the middle name Marie growing up.
Now, I hear of friends naming their girls middle names Marie and it is so funny to me. I feel like for my generation (born in the 80’s) we kind of despised the name, and now I keep hearing it again. And really, it’s a pretty name! There isn’t much I can find about it that I don’t like-it was just our names (my friends and my age group) and we mostly didn’t care for our own names.
