I took a good amount of teasing and taunting over my name, seeing as I was raised in a Baptist church setting.
"Grace, grace, God's grace!"
"Amaaaaazing Grace!"
Har har. Of course it was a bit different when the nice young men started referring to me as that and singing to me
And often times customers would look at my name tag and ask "Where's Will?!"
I know a couple whose son ended up with the initials "G.A.S." They thought it was funny. And someone else who had a son called Asher and a daughter Hosanna. I don't even want to think about how they must have been picked on.
Mom actually wanted to call me that but dad didn't like it. Thanks, Dad! ^_^ He really, really wanted to call me Marie, but Mom hated that one. Dunno why, it's quite nice actually. Funny fact - I'm adopted, and my birth mother always called me Angel. Then when my adoptive family first had me (Didn't know they were going to keep me), they called me just plain "Baby".
Eh, sorry about rambling, but names fascinate me.

I'm glad I didn't end up an Elizabeth, like I was meant to be, as it's much more common
