Anyone thinks their parents were on something when they named you? Or, is there anyone who thinks their parents are geniuses for picking out the best name for u?

I'm ok with my name. But in my job, I've seen some pretty interesting ones that you may like to hear - their parents were either on something, or just cruel, lol:
Mary Virgin
Holly Wood
Jacob Jacobsen
John Johnson
Alison Wonder Land
& last but not least - twins names Lemongelo & Orangelo, named after their mother's favorite dessert - Lemon Jello & Orange Jello
I kid you not, I didn't make these up. These are actual people's names. Poor guys.

Some would argue that fate played a large role in naming a person. Numerology talks of how peoples names are chosen for them by the cosmos. Numerologists believe that each letter stands for a certain number and that your combination of numbers also tells what kind of a person you are, spiritually, romantically, morally,etc...interesting stuff

well I think my parents wanted to make sure my father name was repented. I have a Jr after my name. So I think that it has nothing to do with anything.
It could be worse those, There was a senator from Tennessee who name his daughters Ima and Ura. Their last name was Hogg. Think about that

My parents named me David Michael Johnson. I have since changed my name. I wish they would have gone with something more original like Sodapop Johnson (That will be my son's name), and he'll probably think I was on something when I named him, and he'd be right!

My name is Marie, as you can see.
I think it's a nice name, and when they named my like that it was original, because then most Maries were old people ^^ Nowadays it's a "normal" name.
But I like my name, it's not too short, not too long and it sounds good

As you can see my name is Ashley and I hate it because it's so common. But, my mother claims, when she named me it wasn't ( as far as she knew ) She named me after Ashley Abbot off of some soap opera.
