We have neighbors with girls named Maaya (like Maya) and Mia (Mee-yah). Their poor dad has a hard time keeping their names straight. Then again, Dh has the same problem sometimes with our children's names even though their names are quite different.

LOL...I am the youngest, and the only girl. But, I got called John, Dan, and Mike many, many times in my poor parents' attempts to call me by my name!

Later in his life, my Dad took to calling me the name of his own sister, despite zero dementia on his part.

Now, my oldest brother constantly calls me the names of his two girls!

Boy I thought I was going out on a limb when I named our daughter Elisabeth Kathryn. We thought she'd have Beth as nick name but it is "bug".

My first Girl choice was a Dutch name of Krina (kreena) but if misprounced she could be called Krina Vagina.....


My uncles are twins and my grand mother was on something. She rhymed both first and middle names Merrill Glenn and Carroll Lynn.
Merrill had 2 sons 11 months apart and named them Kendall and Randall.
Carroll had a daughter and named her Carol Lynn. She goes by Lynn.

Here are some more family names I have neices named Raylene and Shalene (not sisters). A neice named Jamie (after Jamie Lee Curtis) and my son is James (named for my dad). A sister named Barbara Ann (like the beach boys song).
A neice named Jessica and a nephew named JESY (James Edward Shane with a y).

Huh.
Try the name "Regina".
Pronounced "Ra-geena" - very unlike "vagina" and very unlike the pronunciation of the capital city of the Canadian province Saskatchewan (which does rhyme with vagina)!
