Personal experiences with the name Adrienne: | Edit

My name is Adrienne and I have enjoyed having it as a name. People sometimes tell me it is pretty. It is different enough that people feel compelled to tell me their mother, niece, cousin ect. is named Adrienne. Of course I get a lot of "Yo, Adrienne!", "Adrienne I did it".....but I like it. Also not many people spell it correctly (I couldn't if it wasn't my name), and people have a hard time remembering my name, calling me Andrea instead but none of that bothers me. If you are considering naming your baby Adrienne I think it is a lovely choice.
