Agnes/Agyness
Claire/Clare
Michelle/Michele
Ashley/Ashleigh

They sound the same so any pedantic comments may as well just be ignored. May I take this opportunity to note that I must call my future child a modern name rather than bringing an older name back to life for fear of upsetting the elderly.

Blazey...you can call any child you have, anything you like.
What you call any child youhave is up to you.
What I was saying was, personally, I do not like the name.

You don't need to get on your high horse, after all in the great scheme of things, it doesn't matter what you, or this actress I have never heard of call your respective offspring.
