Question

...if you don't , maybe your parents are hidin' something...

Answer 1

I do and it's an idiotic story. lol

Answer 2

My first name is John! My middle name is Carroll! My Mother was born in Cork Ireland. Had I been born on March 17th I would have been called Patrick. I was born March 16th. So Patrick was out. My Mom doesn't like nicknames. She likes the name Andrew. Hates Andy.So I was named after her Father John. My Dad's first name is Carroll. So there is the story of my names!

Answer 3

Yes, my first name is a blend of my grandmothers and my fathers which means God's Princess - my middle name is my dad's twin brothers middle name. My ex-sister in law probably doesn't know that her middle name is the name of the woman her dad was having an affair with when she was born - her mom didn't know that's why he chose it, but she later learned that and she was having a fit, but didn't feel that it was appropriate to tell her, don't know why she told me - I'm easy to talk to I guess and she needed to vent - at least my friend didn't use that name!

Answer 4

I am named after both of my parents. My dad was a redheaded Scotsman and all of his army buddies called him Robin. My mom loved the name Linda and didn't have a middle name, so for some reason, she adopted the name Linda and used her real name as her middle name thus, my middle name was tweaked to reflect her first name? Confused yet??? LOL. It works for me!!!

Answer 5

Yes I do. I even know the story behind my Last name! Yeah, they hide stuff, but as for how I got all three of my names, they're totally forthcoming about that information.

Answer 6

My mother picked my first name, David, from the bible.
My middle name is Frederick. Which came from my father's first name; Fredericks. Everyone called him Fred for years.

Answer 7

Yes. My first name is Angie, (its on my birth certificate!) because mom loved the song by the rolling stones, and middle name is marie because mom wanted me to have the same middle name as she did, and my kids have my middle name too.
