    My dad's name is Jay and my parents wanted to call me Jay too without making me a "junior" so they named me Jason and called me that or Jay. That and Jason sounds a bit like Jay's son :D

    IIRC: Jason is Greek for 'healer.' I don't think that had anything to do with it becoming my name. Well, my dad is a doctor, but he wasn't when I was born.. hmm

    My middle name is my mother's father's middle name. They wanted to honor him with my middle name, but his first name rhymes with our last name, and his last name rhymes with Jason, so I got his middle name.

    My dad wanted to call me Paul before I was born, but my mum disliked that and decided William was better... and so it was, thank God for that, Paul + my surname + a chinese translation = a really embarassing and stupid sounding name.

    If you havn't picked it up already, I'm chinese...

    My dumb embarrissing name

    My name? You won't be able to pronounce it, but I'll tell you what it mean. It mean suspicious, distrustful, to doubt. It discribe my personallity sometime. Ppl have a hard time prounoucing it and it get real embarrissing. BTW my aunt the one that gave me this name.

    A name I wish to change it to? Easy. Hoai Thuong. Meaning, cherish love. Isn't it beautiful? My mom wanted to name me this, but my aunt said something about it that they don't like. *Start whining again* I want this name! I try begging my mom to change my name. Was so close once.

    My name is Anthony. I don't know where it came from or really why my parent chose it, but I like it. Were I live, I have only ran across one other guy named Anthony, who *groan* happens to be my older cousin. You wouldn't believe the horror that brings about, all my aunts, uncles and relatives would call me "baby Anthony" and my cuz "big Anthony" just so we can tell whos being called. Good thing he's been gone, else I would still be putting up with that :dizzy2: :anger2:

    My name suits too well. Christopher, as in St. Christopher, the remarkably strong and tall man who ferried people accross rivers on his shoulders. Tall and beefy both describe me, plus I just love the name. But if I were to change......either Scot (the pseudonym I've used online for years) or Yetti (because I am one).

    My name is... *sigh* Melissa Lynne. (Lynne is middle)
    I was told together it means "Pretty cascade of honeybees."
    I havt honeybees.... but the thing that REALLY bugs me is when people call me "Missy." I can't stand that. I hate that nickname! So now most people just call Mel, Wolfie, or Yasuko :)
