My parents gave me a very unusual name. I’m not putting it here as it’s so unusual it might give my identity away.
It is a real name, probably Irish in origin but it doesn’t have a weird Gaelic spelling. It’s very like a similar male name and several other girls names, so why can’t people pronounce it correctly. Similar to Camilla, most people pronounce it either like Cameeela or even Camillaaah!
I have enjoyed it being unique but I feel sorry for all the children given odd names or odd spellings. They will spend the rest of their lives correcting pronunciation and spelling out their names.
Anyone else out there with the same thoughts?
To think that London, or anywhere else for that matter, does not belong to any one demographic
