Another Linda present!
I ws the only "Linda" in my small rural school till I was in Grade 5 when a family moved into the neighbourhood with a nother Linda. Mom named me after her aunt MeLinda.
No more Linda's after me in my family but my daughter and DIL are .... Lyn or Lynn & they also passed on their name & spelling as a second name to my grand daughters.

Checking in! DH and I are Lynn & Linda! We laugh when mail is addressed to Ms. Lynn :D:D

When I was a homeschool Mom years ago there were always lots of moms named Linda in my support groups.

Nice to meet the rest of you.

When I was in high school 55 years ago, I became aware of a lot of baby girls being named Lynn or Linda. I determined that some day I would like to have a baby Linda. And so my first born is named 'Virginia Mylynn' affectionatly referred to as 'Ginny Lynn'.

My mom is "Belinda" and she is also 58! Growing up everyone called her Linda. Now people call her, by mistake, Brenda, Glenda, Melinda and anything else close to that. At her work there is a Melinda and a Linda, also her age.

Yes, it does. And, I can still hear my Grandma Chula say in her high voice, "Linda (she pronounced it Leeenda), Linda, Linda... que bonita! when she saw me with her sweet hands on my cheeks. I miss her so much. :)
