Answer 1

I'm named after my father's first girlfriend's middle name... ( I know, i know, thats wierd...)

I like my name sometimes, and I only know one other girl who had my name, and she spelled it differently...

[Leah Marie...]

Answer 2

My parents couldn't decide on a name so they threw all the names in a hat and I got what they drew out. At times I wish I could change it because it is often misspelled or people call me by a similar sounding name, but all in all I like it.

Answer 3

I was named after my grandfather, but with a different spelling. (The name you see here is obviously not my given name)

I really like the name Natalie, which my parents considered and rejected. Also, several other names they rejected, including Shelly and Allison. If only I could have spoken from the womb.

Answer 4

My first name was a name my mom had picked out ever since she was a little girl according to my mother.. she said if she ever had a daughter her named would be Alisha. And that's my first name she had me when she was 21 btw..and Middle name Marie
came from my father's grandmother's middle. And that's how
got my name Alisha Marie.

But I like my name.. So I would never change it.

Answer 5

Named after two people, the doctor who delivered me and some news lady on TV. HATE my full name and would change it to almost anything. When my kids were little and I talked about hating it and told them I'd change it to anything, they briefly took to calling me Sacajawea. They would use it every chance they could when we were in public, and we were always in hysterics laughing over it. I sort of learned my lesson that I wouldn't really rather be called just "anything."

Answer 6

I was named after a famous piano player at that time. And I did learn to play the piano also!

Answer 7

my mom named me. i am named after a nun. i have her whole name and her religious name. my mom made her mind up in the 7th grade. she told the nun that when she has children her first girl would bare her name. so the rest is history. here i am and people always say my name wrong and spell it wrong too. it's been like that all my life. if i were to change my name, i would like patricia. with a name like that, people would'nt have a hard time saying patricia.

Answer 8

I was named after my great aunt. She was Emily Jane Cunningham, and I was Emily Cunningham Brent. Growing up, I always hated my middle name, and vowed that I would lose it the day I got married. Well, when my first son was born I opted to give him my maiden name as his middle name and I kept the Cunningham as my middle name and dropped my maiden name. :) Funny how things work out.

Answer 9

My first name and middle name were the names of a mother daughter figure skating team. My mom is a big fan of figure skating. I'd like to change my name, but I don't know what I'd change it to.

Answer 10

convinced i replaced into followed. My mom did change my call. i actually want that she did not. I propose i love the call that I have now yet I loved the call that replaced into given to me. the surely sturdy ingredient that got here out of it, is that if I have a woman after I have a baby, I have already got a recognition picked out. i imagine that's ok if moms and dads favor to modify their followed little ones names. i'm getting it. You followed them, you want to call them. I basically experience they might want to imagine about it first, basically understand your youngster can be a touch unhappy. yet you in no way know a few may be grateful.
