Hello all! I have been fostering a little girl since she was two years old. She's four now and we are in the middle of the adoption process. When the time comes, my husband and I really want to legally change her name because, let's be honest, her given name is kind of cringeworthy. (My goodness, I'm sure that sounds horrible.) However we know at 4 years old we can't just tell her that she has a completely different name, that won't go over well. It will be awkward for family members and friends, and especially *her*.
Her given name is A'Dorabelle Starshyne. We've mostly been calling her 'A' since we've had her. We've been trying to figure out names that start with an A and are similar or derive from her given name. We have two of our own kids named Skyler Matthew and Hannah Louise.
Can anyone help?
