Much more interesting Helen! Sylvia - that brings back memories of school where the Sues were numbered according to where our surnames came in the alphabet. Daisy

When my daughter was born 28 years ago - good grief - we had to decide on a name quickly as she was being christened in the incubator (thats another story) we had already decided on Helen and then after a quick discussion Louise. Husband disappeared with vicar, job done. Five years later when she started school five of the girls in her class were Helen and every other one had Louise as a second name - you can't win can you! I still think its a lovely name and wouldn't change it or her for the world...........love your surname Helen, very exotic.......Yvonne

Sounds very exotic. I think we Helens should start our own thread as there are a lot of us - and to think my parents chose my name because they thought it would be unusual! nell
