Although, it is hard to name your own child after you've taught. So many names have to be rejected because of things like I had a kid with that name and he picked his nose every single day of the school year. <br /><br />I wonder how many kids will decide to just go with the normal spelling once they are older.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209807996463889703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-78556985073516665822012-11-06T12:18:00.131-05:002012-11-06T12:18:00.131-05:00I knew someone was going to have a child with a na...I knew someone was going to have a child with a name spelled differently.
