Oh god, was that supposed to be Imogen?Remembered one I’d heard a while ago; Emaghaen-Rose (pronounced like eh-ma-jen). It looks ugly written down and hearing it called out in a Glaswegian accent isn’t any better. Also personally can’t stand hyphenated names.
Yeah, that’s what I thoughtOh god, was that supposed to be Imogen?
I wouldn’t have even guessed that I’d have thought they were trying to make Imagine more quirkyOh god, was that supposed to be Imogen?
Emaghaen? urgh. it looks so ugly written down, almost like a visual representation of the noise someone would make when they're clearing their throat - all phlegmy and gross. eww.Remembered one I’d heard a while ago; Emaghaen-Rose (pronounced like eh-ma-jen).

i read it as “imagine” too - but like how you would pronounce imagine if your mouth was also full of marbles.I wouldn’t have even guessed that I’d have thought they were trying to make Imagine more quirky

I used to go to school with a boy named Imogen. Poor guy, he actually eye-rolled when introducing himself.Imogen is just awful whatever way you try to spell it
my grandad was called Hugh. he died when i was very young, but i heard countless stories of awkward situations where people would ask him his name, and he would reply "Hugh" - only for them to look at him in confusion, thinking he'd said "you?" - clarifying "no, your name" - and apparently this could go on for quite some time, much to his frustration, before they finally graspwd what was going on!My cousin used to work at a hospital in the Imaging Dept and her name is Imogen, so there was a lot of 'hi can you put me through to Imogen in Imaging, please'
Such an ugly name. Sounds like an energy company that went bust in 1995Imogen is just awful whatever way you try to spell it
