Should your parents have named you something different? If so, what?

I always hated my name growing up and wished it was something like Priscilla. Something pretty.
 
No, I like my name as it is unique and I don't hear it used too often.
I do wish I had a different middle name though as I hate my middle name.
 
I'm pleased with my name and really won't change it even that I never even know my mum and dad Xd
 
I like my name but fun fact, it was supposed to be spelled with a K and not a C but apparently, my father didn't want that. So, he changed it to a C. 🤣
 
I wanted the name Sophia or Samantha. My current name is old-fashioned which is why I want to change it.
 
Kinda, only because a lot of people tend to mispronounce my name or call me something that's close to my name but not quite my actual name. It's a unique name though, which I like, so it's different enough that there's not really many people with the same name that I've met. (Names that are close to it, sure, but not the exact same name.)

Over the years though, I've gotten used to the mispronunciations and misspellings, and I just kinda stopped caring. On one hand, it was little annoying to have to correct people constantly, but on the other hand, it wasn't a hill worth dying on and I just stopped doing it. Usually most people get close enough to where even if they pronounced my name wrong, it's still understandable they're talking to me.
 
I like my name and also did as a kid because it’s nice and short and easy to spell!
 
I felt that way on my first day at school. I came to know so many names. I told my father that he should change my name But when he told me that I was named after his mother I accepted it.
 
I like my name and it gives me the luck that I need in life. So no regrets at. all with the name I have already
 
I have never really liked the name that I was given at birth and have always preferred to be called something else which is more of a nickname of the name that I was given. I never thought to change it though as it was given to me by my mum and she liked the name enough to give me it so out of respect, I have not changed it.
 
Yes. My parents 100% should have picked a different name for me. 😉
