Hi, this is my first post!
I'm only 7 weeks PG but thinking about names already. I've had my heart set on Betty from since before I conceived, and luckily my fiance loves it too. I wanted something sorta kitsch and 1950's Americana. However, my daughter drew my attention last week to the fact that she might get called "Sweaty Betty" at school, and then my step-dad said she might get people shouting "Oooh Betty" at her (Some Mother's Do Ave 'Em). Ugh, it makes me so cross you can't just pick a name you love, you have to predict what horrible people will say in the future... Anyway... Are you a Betty? Do you love/hate your name? Do you get called this? Is your daughter called Betty? And non-Betty's, what do you think?
Can you think of any similar names for back-up? Thanks XX
