I gave my daughter an uncommon name. People always pronounce it wrong but I still love it.
Briefly

I named my daughter Charissa Anne, giving her an uncommon name first. It was a popular name decades ago, but now its popularity has dwindled, and that's why I chose it.
We wanted to name our child something that wasn't popular. We knew we wouldn't be naming them either a family name or a popular, common name. We wanted them to have names that felt more special, ones that they wouldn't encounter too many other people with, if at all.
