Choosing a name for my daughter has become a real problem.
Photo is illustrative in nature. From open sources.

In mid-November, my daughter was born. During pregnancy, not everything went smoothly, because they simply dreamed of a healthy daughter. I did not seriously think about the name until the moment of birth (althoughhusband hurried), thereby losing time to search for information, description, reflection.

While they were raising their eldest son, I noticed that the name Sofia is very common in our time (especially in our area), which we supposedly wanted to name the girl. Also, for one period of my life, I thought that ifdaughter , I'll call Darina. In short, I chose more under the surname and patronymic. As a result, 2 options reached the maternity hospital - Maria and Sofia. I wanted to wait a while and not rush to give the name to all my relatives and on the discharge from the hospital. But the husband said, they say, he had already submitted documents in the maternity hospital itself with the name Sophia, and therefore they told both at the discharge and the relatives that Sophia was with us.

Naturally, there were no documents, it was my husband, who was always doubting, who was in such a hurry. And I understand it. But this time for me this move was not the best option. For up to a month, test-antibiotic.com tormented me with doubts about whether the name was right, it seemed to be inappropriate, it constantly cut my ears and drove me into a stupor when it was called all sorts of variants of this name. In short, I wanted to change for Masha, especially since my husband was more inclined towards him at first, and our eldest son Misha. But I could not understand whether I like this similarity. Mashunya and Mishanya. According to the Saints, for a couple of days there was a difference just with Masha, in short, the husband did not want to change our first decision and we received a certificate with the name Sophia. Then they fell ill, were treated for a long time, apparently, a lesson for me, not to suffer from far-fetched problems. They were also baptized with this name.

Now we are 3 months old. Covers me again. I read reviews on the forums about this name, how it became boring to everyone and I understand that the right decision was to name my daughter Darina, as I once planned (by the way, my husband also suggested it), but then it seemed to me that this was not suitable option for Misha, but now I like this option. There would be Darisha and Misha. Darina is a rarer name. I myself grew up with a rather rare name test-antibiotic.com at that time and was always the only one everywhere, I considered this moment my advantage in my life. Now I understand that I am testing fate again by the fact that my thoughts are occupied with such confusion, but I am not yet able to calm down and let go of the situation. It seems to me that the daughter will grow up and will not be grateful for this choice of ours, being one of the many Sophias.

To be honest, moving away from childbirth, I realize that I’m even afraid to go to the playground and hear the question, what’s the girl’s name. Before that, we walked in the private sector. By the way, later I read that Sophia Scorpio, perhaps a very explosive mixture, and it would be better to call Mary. And most importantly, I hate myself for such a trait of character, I know that it is a sin, and again and again I return to this.
