When You Name Your Babies - Please Think First!

These kids have to fill out school forms, fill out their first job application, write resumes, register for college, get their marriage certificates with their names. ALL WITH THE NAME YOU SADDLE THEM WITH. For instance,how would you pronounce this child's name?

  • "Le-a"

NO

  • Leah??

NO

  • Lee - A??

NOPE

  • Lay - a??

NO

  • Lei??

Guess Again This child attends a school in Detroit, MI.. Her mother is irate because everyone is getting her name wrong. It's pronounced "Ledasha", When the Mother was asked about the pronunciation of the name, she said, "the dash don't be silent." SO, if you see something come across your desk like this please remember to pronounce the dash. If they axe you why, tell them the dash don't be silent. Come on people! Yes, this is completely, very un "PC" - it's just because it is funny.
