[Opinions] Re: Abbye
in reply to a message by Laine
Because my name is Abbygaile and my parents took the 'Abby' from Abbygaile and slid the 'e' from the end over to the end of the y. It is easier for ME since there are almost 100 Abby's (almoost ALL spelled as Abby) in my school, and I didn't want to be one of the ones that was "just another Abby". It would have gotten on my nerves. Besides Abby and Abigail aren't my name. Abbye and Abbygaile are.

Almost 100 Abby's in your school? How big is your school?

There are around 650 kids in our school. Aparantly parents went through an "I love the name Abby" stage when most of the se kids were born whihc was around 1994 to 1995. Since most of them are in my grade. Not all 100, because we only have 97 students in the 7th grade at my school and I think 21 of us are name Abby something.

Wow that must get really confusing. I don't see how adding an extra e would help though. They still sound the same. I would probably go by Gaile in your situation.
