Anyone think I shouldn't name my daughter Hypatia Artemis? Other suggestions?
Hi folks,
I'm thinking of Hypatia (after Hypatia of Alexandria) for my daughter's first name, and Artemis (after the Greek Goddess of the Hunt) for a second name. My parents are horrified, and think she'll be teased. I thought if she doesn't like Hypatia, she can use "Patty" for short. For reasons personal to me, it's important to give her the name of a strong, unmarried woman. Who else thinks this is just an invitation for bullying, or thinks that there are other compelling reasons not to use these names? Any other suggestions for strong, unmarried female namesakes? -Andrea Baker |
