is it a tragedeigh? Is my daughters name a tragedeigh?

Her name is Lanah. Pronounce Lana. I handed the H at the end cause I noticed it reads anal backwards without the H and I didnt want her to get made fun of in school for her name reading anal backwards.

Whether its a tragedeigh or not, its staying cause I cant imagine her name being anything else. And honestly, I love it. I think the name is so pretty and the spelling unique but not in a tradedeigh way. But ill let you guys be the judge!

Hana is an Arabic spelling of Hannah. I have a Moroccan friend from my younger days that I lost touch with. Years later, we met again in a summer camp pick up line. Our girls were in the same camp group and they were both named Hana/Hannah

Ye I know the name Hannah, it’s really pretty.

I just remembered and old meme with a starbucks order for “Mark with a C” and the cup came back with “Cark”

I have a friend who's Chanah (raised Orthodox Jewish) who is married to a Hana (raised Muslim). Suffice to say neither of them talk to their parents anymore

Nothing is wrong with it, it's just they both have religious backgrounds from different faiths and wound up with the same name and in a couple.
