Ok I need your help.....I have 2 names - My American/English name, which is Harriet, and my Greek name, which is Haroula.
Legally, I am Harriet but the only people who have called me that are people in school (since Haroula isn't the most ordinary name, as if Harriet is) and people at work. Other than that, everyone, including FH, family, FH's family, close friends, call me Haroula.....
What name do I put on my wedding invites? FH says Haroula, since he has never once called me by Harriet, but I am not sure....
Ideas???

This is tough but I think if most people know you by your greek name go with your greek name

AHHHH!!!! My real REAL baptism name is Zaharoula, but since there are 3 other ones in the family, we stuck to Haroula to avoid the confusion....
Since you are greek, tell me how Harriet came from Zaharoula.....lol you figure that one out!
I love Haroula and I hate Harriet so I think I am going to stick with Haroula!!!
= ) Thanks Koukla!

I would definitely use Haroula. That's a very pretty name and if most people call you by that name, that's what I would use....good luck making your decision

lolllllll i could go on and on with this with every family member
its Ioanna, so i get Iona (as in the college lol), I-o-anna pronounced exactly like that its hysterical, sometimes people think its an L so they call me Loanna
and some people insist they call you by your real name even though they cant say it to save their life, im like PLEASE Joanna is fine thanks bye
