What name would you pick?

If you had to change your real life name, what name would you pick??

I never felt my name suited me and always used an abbreviated version of it. 

If I picked a new name I'm torn whether I'd go really traditional to blend in or really out there and unique.

I've often wished I had a more gender neutral name, so probably something along those lines!

I wouldn't change my name it's what my patents gave to me

That's an interesting point. I probably would never change my name and because as difficult as my relationship with my parents is, it's something they (presumably) spent time picking out for me

But then I see the a lot of people argue that a name is a gift, if you didn't like another gift would you change it / return it / use it just because your parents gave it to you? 

That argument doesn't really work for me because I would

@Biblioklept same answer really I would never return or change any gift no matter who from unless it was faulty 

Someone has taken the time to select that gift I also would be upset if somebody did that with a gift I had bought them

Good question! As much as my name is a bit out there, it does kinda suit me and I can't picture myself as anything else but Cher. I do love the names Millie and Hannah though but more for a baby. Infact I was convinced I was having a Millie until the 20 week scan of the boy

I love the name Millie @Cher_Scope! 

Glad it isn't just me @janer1967!!
