ONE woman’s name is nothing but common when you see how it’s spelled.
Taking to the Reddit thread r/tragedeigh, the 40-year-old explained: “My name is Leighna (Lena), is this a tragedy?
two
“My middle name is Nocole (nicole).”
O publish has been gaining popularity with 3.6 thousand votes and counting and thousands of comments.
One simply said: “It’s tragic,” and a second agreed: “Double tragedy.”
Someone commented: “You have a double tragedy on your hands.
“At least one of them is written the way it is pronounced; the other, well, I’m sorry.
Another explained: “Nocole is pronounced No-Cole, not Nick-ol… 1000% tragedeigh.”
A fourth said: “Nocole is bad.”
Another person asked: “Does your weirdly spelled name make you feel special like your mom wanted?
“In other words, did it properly prepare you for a good life? Or are you always spelling her name for her eyes?
The original poster responded: “My whole life I’ve told people no it’s not layna NO COLE or legna or legina or Leeann haha.”
The woman, born in 1984, explained why her mother wrote her name that way.
She said: “She actually thought that was how Nicole was spelled and up until 5th grade I thought it was spelled Nicole and I spelled it wrong until I was old enough to see my birth certificate haha.
I’m 40 years old and I’ve lived with this my whole life! No one can pronounce or spell it!! It’s so irritating.
“I don’t know how to tell you this, but… your name is bad,” read another comment.
One Redditor said: “If I heard it out loud, I would think it was beautiful.
“But to see it written like that… it’s definitely a tragedy.”
Someone wondered, “How could anyone figure this out? Sorry. Yes, tragedy x2.”
And Leighna replied: “They never did or do haha”.
Someone else joked: “I thought your middle name had a typo that you didn’t fix.”
It comes after a woman made fun of the way her cousin’s baby’s name was spelled.
“Recently, my cousin gave birth to a baby girl and shared photos on her Facebook page. She then sent that Facebook post to our family group chat,” she said.
“Her daughter’s name is Lylyt Yvyh Yryhl, read as ‘Lilith Eva Uriel,’” she added.
Meanwhile, a baby name expert has revealed how to choose the perfect moniker if you’re a dad-to-be.
The struggle to choose a baby name
CHLOE Morgan, senior writer at Fabulous, revealed her dilemma when choosing a name for her baby…
At 35 weeks pregnant, by far the trickiest part of pregnancy for me over the last few months (minus the insomnia and countless nighttime breaks!) has been trying to decide on the baby’s name.
The dilemmas are endless…
My partner and I had a private exam to find out the sex as early as possible – partly because we thought it would make naming babies so much easier because we would only have to create a list of names for one gender instead of two.
How wrong we were…
I was absolutely thrilled to learn I was expecting the girl I’d already dreamed of, but being one of the last friends to get pregnant, I’ve had countless conversations over the years with excited friends discussing their top baby names. …something I wish I could go back in time and not hear.
With every friend mentioning at least 10 possible nicknames, I can’t help but feel that several are now off-limits, even though I know it’s something none of them would mind in the slightest – it’s a total turn-off for me!
The debate comes up again and again on social media forums – can you choose the same name that was a “potential” for a friend’s baby?
It’s a very divisive subject and opinions are always mixed… and I don’t want to be THAT person.
While some will argue that there are thousands of other names to choose from, others will say that you need to choose YOUR favorite… after all, there is no guarantee that this person will have another child.
Then there’s also the matter of finding a name you love… only to look it up online and read one negative review among hundreds of positive ones that you just can’t get rid of.
I made this same mistake when I fell in love with a certain name (I won’t reveal it because I don’t want to ruin it for others!)…only to have someone point out that it is constantly autocorrected on a phone to something quite rude. So, we went back to the drawing board.
There are only five weeks left and it looks like our little one will be known as ‘baby gal’ for a while longer!
