Capable
I will name my daughter Capable and she will enjoy the privilege of being called Clee for short. She will be the coolest kid in school but she and her peers will not know this until their coming of age. I imagine my daughter, after a long day at kindergarten, swallowing tears as she rushes past me to her room, shouting through her shut door, Why did you have to name me after an ugly adjective! At least yours is Nice! When she finally comes out it is dinner time and i will muster the strength not to be visibly affected by her hurting because I know there is no other name more fitting for my daughter as she will not take after me.
