I've seen a few Gillian's come up through correspondence at work though! I also saw a Gillianne which sounds very French.<br /><br />I so know what you mean about people ruining a name! A nice Alison needs to come along and restore your faith in the name!<br /><br />Hehe your name has a hilarious meaning! I don't know anyone else with your name but you are right about the teen movies.<br /><br />I am so curious about Mr. Flats name! I think it is a smart move to give your name out for orders, sometimes it is more trouble than it is worth to repeat/pronounce it a million times!Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01902764714956943629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291704561221859854.post-91605582746164105692012-03-12T10:25:49.229+11:002012-03-12T10:25:49.229+11:005 names!

It's good that you also get an easy nickname out of it ( Cassie) and it sounds like you are cool with that. Your name has an awesome meaning!<br /><br />I get called Gill a lot, it's kind of a given people call me that but I don't mind, it's like I have two names in one haha.Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01902764714956943629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291704561221859854.post-25271088617467892962012-03-12T10:23:24.529+11:002012-03-12T10:23:24.529+11:00Sienna is a nice name but so is Kirryn!

It's unique but not in a bad way like Robeckah or Khristy or something along those lines ha ha. <br /><br />I am glad I am Gillian and not Alexandra which was the other name my mum had in mind. No offence to the Alexandra's of the world but I don't think it suits me!Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01902764714956943629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291704561221859854.post-66979652267347100032012-03-12T10:19:52.619+11:002012-03-12T10:19:52.619+11:00We are a good bunch ;)

i've only...Trying to remember what i wrote....<br /><br />i've only just recently met a couple of gillian/jillian's and so far i really like them both! so my experience with the name is lovely... there's the blog gillian (that's you) and my work jillian... both two people that i really like and who think i'm pretty funny which is always a bonus!<br /><br />it's funny how an experience with a certain name can colour it for life. i've never met a person called alison that i've like or who has been nice. i was bullied quite badly at school by a girl called alyson and then again at the first place i worked out of school by a girl called allison so it's ruined that name for me!<br /><br />i really like my name although it has quite a ridiculous meaning in some names dictionaries. google it... my name is a name everyone has heard of but they don't necessarily know anyone called that. although there is ALWAYS one in any american teen movie you watch!<br /><br />mr flats has a most unusual name. i think there's only two or three of them in australia with his name. he was named after a greek war hero, well that's what he told me when we first started dating & i though that was a load of boohockey made up to impress me. until we went to athens some years later to visit his family and they showed me the monument build in this fellow's honour! given it's so unusual people never get it right and he always gives my name for anything that requires a name being called out :)<br /><br />phew, long comment!c_for_courthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01364205543758638758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291704561221859854.post-33985592706344051172012-03-10T00:31:59.062+11:002012-03-10T00:31:59.062+11:00I have five names in total.

It's elegant and means 'entangler of men' or 'helper of men.' So cool! Cassandra was also a Trojan princess who saw the future but nobody believed her. There's a lot of history behind my name, and there's even the Cassandra Complex. I also like 'Cassie' but it sounds peppy and energetic and fun, all things I aspire to be :)Cazzamatazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807590249739227656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291704561221859854.post-75171173969434726342012-03-09T18:48:20.611+11:002012-03-09T18:48:20.611+11:00I like this post! I too think a person's name ...I like this post! I too think a person's name really shapes their personality, which is weird, but I do think its true. Your name really suits you! I actually didnt realise that Gillian with a G could be pronounced Gill-as-in-fish-gill-ian. I have thought it was always 'Jillian.' Interesting! <br /><br />My names drives me a bit mental because it's so weird. I'm forever having to spell it or correct people's pronunciation, but I dont mind it. I resent the fact that my mum wanted to call me Sienna but my dad refused because 'it's an ugly colour' hahaha. (damn artists!!! I love the name Sienna). I was nameless for 3 days and he came up with Kirryn.

It's normal and reasonably common and not *too* many people have it. And I like the letter R, lol. The only thing that annoys me about it is that people constantly spell it Rachael (which is a stupid spelling IMO) or people call me Rebecca for some reason. <br /><br />xxrachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00655728921826215544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291704561221859854.post-10417844661917876912012-03-09T11:48:08.379+11:002012-03-09T11:48:08.379+11:00I love the name Gillian!

She never corrected me that it was with a 'J' despite the spelling. Only found out when someone else told me post-meeting. <br /><br />I like my name Michaela, but hate the variations that are popping up everywhere, Mikayla, Mihala, Mekahla etc. Such a name snob!Michaelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02158489760629811287noreply@blogger.com
