Hey Moms & Dads!  i am expecting a daughter soon and want to give her a "hippie" name.  I am not really a hippie but the name leans more to that genre.  I chose the name because of a song.  This song puts our life into perspective as far as the past 2 years (which were the roughest we've seen) and what our daughter represents.

I have an uncommon name: Rhiannon, and I LOVED having the name.  It made me feel special growing up and unique.  I didn't mind it when people asked upon hearing my name if my parents were Fleetwood Mac fans (they have a song titled "Rhiannon") or when my teachers started singing my name whenever they saw me.

My question is:  Do you hate having a "hippie" name?  What do you say when you tell people your name & they ask if your parents were hippies?  Does it bother you?

I had simply never heard it before, and it's not an ugly name, I had thrown it into the list of odd names I had heard. (Perhaps my wording was out of place)

It was the other name I was more bleh, against. :)

 

 

Karozel: What names! (I like your granddaughters name ALOT btw, ;) )

And Thumper? Wow, that's a unique name.
