When his wife had a baby girl we all tried desperately to persuade him to call his daughter Penny! :wah:

:wah: A guy at work whose surname is Hall had a son about 2 months ago and we kept telling him to call him Royal Albert

Good job really. It's a nice name, but it wouldn't suit me at all! Sounds far too posh!:D

It's just as well you weren't named Victoria. I think that Pinky suits you much better.

Pinky,

I'll bet after your mum rejected the name "Victoria" for you, she looked at your little fingers and found them to be absolutely beautiful, so she named you after them. Am I correct?

I know exactly what my name would have been if I had been born a girl.

Alison

My Mother was so sure that it was going to be a girl that she settled that right at the beginning.

However I was a boy and she decided to name me after her father who had died about thirty years before leaving her mother to bring up eight children (out of a total of twelve born) circa 1900.

Her mother vehemently turned on her and said, "You never name a child after a dead person. Name him after someone who is alive and will appreciate the honour."

So I was named after my uncle, the youngest brother my mother had.

Two or three weeks later his wife gave birth to a girl.

She had never know that there was Alison in my grandmother's name so she named her daughter Alison.

Remarkably we grew up as almost identical twins with fiery red hair and faces covered with freckles and many passersby remarked on "That lovely pair of twins."

Isn't life remarkable in all its idiosyncrasies.

God bless all.

I was quite moved when some friends of mine said they were going to call their baby Kram, but in the end, they had a boy.
