We named our daughter Dasia Madyson. (Daasha) The y in madyson comes from her english background and her first name from my lineage. It's unique and I think sounds damn pretty. Some people around here *see rednecks* don't understand it and can't even pronounce it to begin with anyway.
The main reason that I wanted a name that was unique without being hollywood stupid unique, is because I want her to be her own person. I contemplated the fact that she wouldn't be able to go to a tourist kiosk and find her name on a keychain, and I was fine with that. I think in the end, she'll be more pleased not just being another Jennifer, or Ashley etc.
But as will points out.. it all comes and goes in cycles.
