Newbie: You must be psychic girl, because I was thinking of posting something simliar!
My name is Aimée, pronounced A-may. Its French for Amy and means "beloved."
I have always felt my life would be different had I been named something "easier." On the playground, etc, my introductions were always met with "A-what? Huh?" rather than "nice to meet you." I hate introducing myself to people because I hate to have to say my name and teach them the pronunciation. It always leaves me feeling self conscious because my name is "wierd."
Since I've gotten to college, I let most people call me Amy, because its just too much trouble to teach 5 or 6 professors every semester how to say my name, plus classmates that I'll never see again.
When I have a daughter, I'm going to name her something that's unique but not difficult to pronounce. :P
