    WHAT'S IN A NAME?

    OK, now I have to follow up the question about your children's names with a query about your own! 
    Do you like the name your parents gave you or would you change it?  If so, what would it be?
    Share as much information as your are comfortable sharing.

    It took awhile to receive your title, but you are all-deserving, no doubt. Too ironic! I'm so glad I was part of the coronation. :D

    Of Corse it is...My Royale leige LOL

    My mom had planned to name me Beverly, but shortly before my birth, met a couple of people who scared her right out of it.  I know a Beverly now, through akaQA, and she is a fantastic person.  Obviously, my mom didn't meet HER! 
    The name I finally got is in honor of one of Mom's best friends during nursing school.  They still exchange holiday greetings some 60+ years later.  :D
    Would I change my name?  Yes.  I would like something like Joy, Casey, or Dorian. 

    My father named me.  I liked the nick name he gave me as a child much better.  When my eldest daughter received my nick name as her first name my parents began calling me by my given name... I was devistated.   My first name is after a character in a book, shortened and Diane is my middle name. 


    People call me what my sister me called when she was alive, these days.  It reminds me of her whenever someone says it.  


    I don't think I ever really cared for my name... which is why I put a lot of effort into my children's names. 

    Where I was  born, in a tiny Village, everyone had their grandparents or parents first names Thats the way it was and I was given my mothers name and am very proud of it.

    We all (even my folks) have "J's" in our names, My mom stuck with that tradition otherwise I would have been named "Sally"-that wouldn't have been so bad. Not many around..........

    I like my name although i had very little choice in deciding it, with that being done and said NO i wouldn't change it ,unless I could come up with a better one.

    My father named me after Roy Rogers' nieces horse !Lindi Lou !!!! My mother refused to put it on my birth certificate...but dad didn't!!!  Aha!  Or should I say...Eee Haw !!  ;D

    Hi Bob.Yeah i often wonder about names.Some people get jelous of other peoples dont they, and so tend to not use your name.Mines Emma or Em and love it.Thats just my opinion, but find other girls wont say it, which is why i get suspicious and think that they wish it was there name.I could be wrong, but who knows.weird ey???? xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    I like your way of thinking! Confident

    A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Julie

    I was supposed be Micheal Steven, when my father registered me he changed it and named me after a County in honour of his best friend, my middle name is after my father, i have put up with insults and variations of my Christian name ever since -- 'Kent'' i think oi would have preferred Micheal, Mike or Mick.

    Bob/PKB

    People are so offensive at times. I am really disgusted that people have harassed you about your name. I like "Kent", but the way. It sounds like an attractive person would have it.

    I like the name Kent. Michael, Mike or Mick don't have a ring like Kent. Good solid name. It has flair!
