I love moments where you see a name that you've always hated and suddenly it's as if your eyes are opened for the first time and you realize how lovely the name actually is.
Well, tonight I was looking at an old Sears & Roebuck archive of houses for sale and there was a beautiful little white house with pretty flower boxes and it was called the "
Winona". I was awe struck! I've heard and seen the name Wynona/Wynonna plenty of times, but always hated it. I even knew of someone with the name and thought it sounded pretty on her, but I just couldn't make myself like it. But when I saw the spelling
Winona I fell in love instantly! Images of an adorable little girl or beautiful woman suddenly came to mind, along with wonderful nickname options like
Winnie, Winne, and
Nona! I never thought I would see anything in the name
Winona, but I am very glad I did! I'm excited to add it to my list of favorite names now! :)
I'm not sure about middle names. Any suggestions?
Has anyone else ever had a moment like that with a name? :)

Edit: I just thought of the combo
Winona Honor, wdyt?
