My parents gave me terrible names. Both my first and last names were a source of embarassment when I was growing up. And, I still hate them. Most people mispronounce my first name, few can spell it, many have never heard of it and some can't pronounce it at all. Oddly, I often get compliments now that I am an adult. I feel like replying - don't compliment me, I didn't name myself. Oh, and by the way, never call me by that awful name ever! Please, please, please give your children decent names so they are not teased growing up.
Have you ever considered changing it?
