>>Our goal was not to have cutsie names like your snide "Teighlor" comment, we chose to have real Biblical names for our kids. And for the record, here in our part of the Midwest, the spelling "Rebekah" is rather common. <<

Didn't mean to be snide -- but it is an odd spelling nonetheless for most of the country. Your kid will probably still have to say "Rebekah with an H and a K."

It's just a reality -- don't get mad at me that a lot of the country really isn't in touch with the Old Testament.

I apologize for the small flame, didn't mean to misinterpret you. Yes, her name will be kind of a pain to spell, but its at least explainable - whereas most of the names listed in this thread are attributable to sheer stupidity on the parent's part. Once again, sorry I bristled at you.
