What's in a name?

[Starfish]

At work there's an Anita Leigh that is pronounced "lay". It's her married name. Her maiden name was Cox

At least she didn't hyphenate when she got married!

The problem: FOR TWO YEARS, she introduced herself to people as "Have'a" and for a while, I was truly convinced she would successfully change her name as an adult ;-) that's my girl!

Hey, just wait. She's not yet married and having kids of her own!

Certainly there must be plenty of cyclists out there with daughters named Cadence?

My friend's husband wanted to have a bunch of boys so he could name them:

Hunter
Fisher
Trapper
Skinner
Gunnar
and there was one more but I can't remember it

But instead, they had a girl and named her Katie.

My first college roommate (for one week) was named El Gardo

El Gardo had three brothers:

• El Gringo
• El Julio AND
• Joe Junior

There were from Opelika, Alabama

This made me think of my SO's college friend. Her name is Salvation (odd but still manageable) but her brother's name is....wait for it....

PraiseGod

Now, I understand being religious and all....but really...why his parents named him this I will never know. And yes, he still goes by it (he's in his 20's)

Oh, I actually like that!

My cousin is married to a Storm. He's actually a very laid back guy.

My sister's mother-in-law is named Sky. ( I actually like it)

My dad's middle name is Carroll. I don't know what the origins of that was.

My mother's stepmother's was Eula Mae (deep South)

yeah, my maiden last name/married last name is quite unfortunate. All my life I dreamed that I'd marry someone with a normal last name like Smith or Jones or Adams. But no! Love triumphs! I married someone with a worse last name than my own.
