Do you like having a double barrelled first name or do you wish it was one or the other? I only ask because if I have a girl I'd like to call her Anna-louise and would hate to think that she won't like it.

I dont mind my name but for as long as i can remember everyone including my parents have called me J.C ! I just find sometimes certain people.. like doctors ect. like to change the name for whatever reason and take out the hyphen and just put the first part of my name Jamie and then my last name.. which does annoy me because thats not my name and i never understand why they change it themselfs when i have clearly written Jamie-Clare and i always have to correct them!
