Your vs. Own vs. Siblings

What are YOUR siblings names? What is your name? Do you think any of your siblings got a nicer name than you, or do you think you got the nicer name? Please reply if you feel comfortable in sharing your personal names. No surnames please. I find names fascinating and thought this might be fun, but only if you feel comfortable sharing. No surnames please. Trying to respect people and their personal confidentiality etc

I forgot to share my own!

Big brother - Brian
Big sister - Bethany
I am Bernadette.
Yes, we are all B names.

I hate my name. Always have. Considering a legal change of name.
My sister got Bethany. I think that is much nicer!

I'll only share one of my siblings' names for privacy reasons: Madeleine. Her name is classy and feminine.

I have a Mac/Mc name, and I'm a woman. It's not Mackenzie or McKenna -- just to clarify.I've never liked my own name. It feels too boyish and doesn't reflect my girly-girl personality at all. Everyone knows me by my current name, so legally changing it feels pointless at this stage.

So did you just ask people to call you by a differant name then? How did they start calling you by your currant name?

Love my name which is rare enough not to share, sibs have solid traditional classics, my name is slightly more exotic which is cool, they're all guys so never wanted any of their names anyway.

Sister: Hilary Patricia
Brother: Peter Damien
Me: Ann Marie

I think my parents did a great job. It's funny that their name nerdy youngest got every 1960s girl's filler middle name as a full name. But it still works. :0)

My first name is Melanie and most people call me Melanie, but sometimes I get Mel which is fine too. Never really had an issue with my name. My siblings are Olivia/Liv and John Jr.

My middle name is Dee and im a pround advocate of, Don't name your kids letters. Ell is so popular right now and its hard living with the fact you have to explaining your name isnt a name. Its not short for anything, its more like a letter. Im finally changing my middle name to Dianne. I took my time picking something that felt right for me. But yeah, letter names are just terrible.

Dane, Josephine (Josie), Barbara (Bobbie), Tanner, and Andrea (Andy) - yes, I'm the baby of the family. I think our names work well together as a sibset. I've always liked how I have a full name to fall back on incase I didn't want to use a nickname, but I like my nickname too and it does feel more "me" than my full name does (at this point in my life anyways).

Not sharing the names, but no, I don't think my siblings got better names than me. If I did a poll with our names, I bet mine would come in last, but I actually like mine the best. Probably just because it's always been mine. We all have kind of old-school names. My brother is the only one who had a semi-popular name.

You guys are all beautiful. Thank You for sharing what you felt comfortable sharing. My empathy goes to those of you who don't like your name. You could always change it! That's what I'm going to do …. I think.
Thanks everyone X
