Poll: To change or not to change?
Hey Neighbours,
How do you feel about your name?
Do you like it?
Do you hate it?
Do you want to change it?
One woman had her younger years tainted by the fact that she shared her name with five others in her class, so she changed it as soon as possible.
Now her daughter Esmee is about to start full-time education but will be sharing her name with two others in her class.
Horrified by this the mother posted to an anonymous parenting site if it would be unreasonable to change her daughter's name.
What do you think?
Has anyone in Franklin had a similar name situation?
What did you do about it?
Please put NFP if you don't want your comment printed.
