Personal experiences with the name Enid

This was not an easy name to grow up with. I hated it as a child. As an adult I like that it is unusual, but there are much prettier unusual Welsh options than this.

This is my Grandmothers name and one of my middle names. I know that I personally think that it suites my Grandmother, but she thought that it was a hard name to grow up with. She got made fun of and people constantly mispronounce it.
