Personal experiences with the name Winry

We named our daughter Winry. Many adults have trouble pronouncing it when they first hear it (it's win-ree), but other children don't have a problem saying the name.
Beware of nicknames that people will try to call the kid with this name. (winniekins,wins etc.) Kids have no problem pronouncing the name.

A lot of people at first thinks it's another way of saying Wendy, and I guess it can be, however, I also know they are wrong since Winry means something very different than Winry.

People tend to have trouble hearing it when you first say it, especially if they don't see it written. People tend to hear win-er-ee or win-free and you need to correct them. It helps to over-enunciate when you tell people her name. Once they get it though many people agree it's cute
