I think mine is quite rare

My first name is Ancella (pronounced An Shay Ah), I've never met anyone else with that name or heard of anyone else with it either. I kind of like it because people often comment on it and it can be a bit of a conversation starter. On the other hand, nobody knows how to spell or say it, so it's a bit annoying having to explain it to everyone. And I could never find any personalised gifts with my name on lol

You must get "Ann sella" a lot...

@walabby you're right, and "An chella" or sometimes people say Angela

@Ancella That must be a little annoying, but I hope that you cut them some slack.

@walabby it is, but I just let it slide. After all, people can't know unless they've been told

@Ancella True. People have trouble with the spelling of my surname. I'm used to it...

@Ancella I visited there a few years ago. It was surreal to be where some of my ancestors came from.

@walabby it's a beautiful country, right now we're knee deep in snow

walabby · 61-69, M

@Ancella Is that normal, or is this year different?

Ancella · 31-35, F

@walabby we usually get a wee bit of snowfall, but this is more than we normally get
