Puzzle Description:

My mother wanted to name me Terri but her friend/neighbor said that's a Terri-ble name and her daughter should have a beautiful name like Alicia instead. No offense to any Terris out there, this is just my story. Alicia is a Swedish name that means Truth, though some will say its a Greek name meaning Noble. Terri means People's Ruler.. I am definitely more of an Alicia and thankful for my mom's friend that gave me this beautiful name.

My mother's name was Alicia. My grandmother couldn't decide between Alice and Patricia, so she thought she had invented a new name by combining them into Alicia.

It's a pretty name Alicia.

I have a sister named Terri, and a daughter named Alicia. They're both beautiful names.

Nice! My mom used to joke that she almost named me Olga, so I'd have a nice Norwegian name to go with Vognild. :D

I like the name Olga. I had an aunt named Olga that was a very sweet woman. Thanks y'all.

With the two long "o"s, Olga Vognild has a nice ring to it!

The 2nd O is short :) I got called Frognild a lot in middle school...

Oh! You had mentioned Vogon poetry a while back, so I was thinking the pronunciation was similar. Anyway, even with a short o, Olga Vognild has a nice ring to it.

I agree. :)
