Got accused of giving my daughter a Tragedeigh today.

I was registering my daughter for an event today, and gave her name: Livia. The registrar wrote down Olivia, and I corrected her. After a long sigh, she wondered aloud why people couldn't just give kids normal names. Did I screw up? I'm a Roman history buff, and I loved that Livia was a double reference (Livia Augusta, and her nickname, Livy, is a famed Roman historian). Her sister is Cecilia, another good name from ancient Rome, though I resisted the original spelling of Caecilia.

This is the first time I've considered I may have visited a tragedeigh upon my poor 6 year old.
