The next thing that happened was that the name instantly shot to the top of the name lists, and every other girl born in the US for about 10 years was given that name. So now there's no way in hell I would ever use it. And then, when I finally got around to having kids, I've only had two boys.
So don't spend too much time worrying about it. If you ever do have a kid, chances are a) you'll have changed your mind by then; and b) you'll have a kid of the opposite sex.

Ha. Thank you for your kind words. To be honest, I was annoyed about it for about a nanosecond (maybe longer - enough to post about it), but then the annoyance went away. The baby is very cute and actually the name suits her well - plus I have no leg to stand on, plus I doubt I'll ever have kids, so it's pretty much a non-issue. Just wanted to vent for a sec.
