Misc Your real name - Page 7

**luv** · 01-04-2009, 05:43 PM

Not asking you to reveal your true identity. Just wondering if you have any interesting stories about why your parents gave you the name they gave you. I was talking with my dad, and he mentioned that, around the time I was born, he went to the bank and liked a teller's name. It was LuRita. Thank goodness my mom didn't like it. However, that is why my first name has two capital letters. Also, If I was a boy, my name would have been Mark Jeffrey after my dad's two best friends he had in the army.

I got my name because "boy" sounded worse. My parents really drew a blank and just settled on it.

My son got his name because I thought Scott Zilla would be a damn cool name for a kid. My daughters name was a name I fell in love with the first time I heard it, Jennica. I stayed with a family in high school whose oldest girl had that name and I just loved the sound of it. When my wife came home and said she was pregnant, I asked if we could name her Jennica, she said I don't know if it is a girl. I just stared her straight in the face and asked again if we could name her Jennica, she got to pick her middle name, hehe.

My dad chose my first name, (it means Pure... very appropriate) and as for my middle... My mother still didn't have the best grasp of the English language at the time, and since I was born around Christmas... I ended up with a great Porn Star name.

I think Hef had a Miss December named Karen Christie.

woot. woot.

Way better than the "Michael Ryan" I was supposed to be.

I've had many names in my life. All of them very real.

If I had to pick which one was my favorite, it would be You. Had that one for 4 months.

Because of the famous movie icon, John Wade.

I don't know where my parents came up with.

"That's Not My Ass Jones"

So I picked out Angelo as soon as I turned 18.

Snatch rep.
