'I regret giving my daughter her name - it makes me cringe with embarrassment'

ok.co.uk:

A mum has admitted to feeling 'cringe-worthy embarrassment' when she says her daughter's name and is suggesting that she might want to change it as she grows older.

She named her son Nixon in a nod to her mum and picked her daughter's name to honour her mother-in-law, aiming for a sense of balance.The American mum revealed on Reddit: "My son, firstborn, is 15.

I named him after my mom's maiden name, Nixon. (We're not American so it has nothing to do with the former president). When I was pregnant with my second, I didn't know what I was having but decided to use my mother-in-law's maiden name.

Which means I now have a 12-year-old daughter named Silver." Despite her affection for the name, she worries it might be a 'tragedeigh', a term used for a name that has been "deliberately misspelled or completely made up to appear more unique than it actually is".
