We finally decided on [name_f]Clara[/name_f] for our baby girl but when I told me grandmother today she said “YOU CANNOT USE [name_f]CLARA[/name_f]! That was the name of your grandfathers mistress that he cheated on me with and I get sick every time I hear that name!” So I guess we’re back to square one.
We love something classic and underused preferably outside the top 100.
Middle name will be [name_u]Marion[/name_u] and our last name is very long and starts with a “P”.
So no “p” names to try to avoid PP INITIALS😂
Thank you!!
