My first pregnancy, I knew if I had a boy I would name him Joshua, as that had been my fave boy's name for years. When I told my granny she nearly had a fit! She said Joshua was a very old-fashioned name and he would get teased really badly. We named Joshua over my granny's strong objection. Several years later it seemed that every boy was named Joshua! That's one of the only times my granny was wrong...  |
We had the same response when we named our first daughter Emily. My husband's grandmother was appalled because she thought we had chosen a really old fashioned name. To her it was as bad as calling her Ethel!
