If you had been born with the opposite gender, what would your name have been?.

My Mom and Dad wanted to call me Kim if I'd been a girl. There used to be a boy who lived near me as a kid, named Kim, and I used to wonder why he had a girls name :rolleyes:

Glad it wasn't Gary

Well if Dumbass can be used for both male and female I'm sure they would have stayed with my current name.

Hiya Unc

My twin sister and I would have been Michael and David

But I don't know which one I would have been :-6

Not really sure, but I think it would have been Walter since I'm named after my uncle. His middle name was Sherilyn.

How nice - alot of you sound as if you were planned.

My Mom threw us a name if we survived the Quinine.

Patsy

I suppose they'd have named me after my dad.

Love to all,

Alvis Rennels

I dunno, only can say originally I was to be a Leslie, ahahahaha but last minute name change by dad and my poor brother came along later and got Leslie as his first name. Smart mom she started right off calling him by his middle name. He NEVER tells anyone his first name.

I was gonna be Luigi

.

Is it any better than Guisseppina Filomena you tell me. :wah:

Oh Unc I had a dog named Kim. :yh_rotfl

Steve

I would have been a Christopher!

My older brother, if he'd been a girl, would have been Andrea.



(I'm glad I didn't get called that.)

So you would have been Morris Minor?

I was going to be named after the hospital I was born in. St. Theresa. Thank god I was a boy. They had to do a quick rethink. I don't know how I would have survived school as Saint Theresa.

My parents were actually going to name me Bart. Whew. So I figure Dumbass aint so bad.

My brother was going to be Cheryl :wah:

I was very nearly called Dirk after Dirk Bogarde :rolleyes: and my brother was nearly called Bart too .........after someone named Bart

My mommy knew I was going to be a girl.........................

No, Holomew

I know my sister was going to be Robert. When I got to meet Margareta I told my parents she was very nice but where was Robert? In the end they had to get me a doll called Robert. He was a girl doll too... geesch. No wonder I'm weird.

My son Mik was asked by his third grade teacher why he was so weird! (Good question for a teacher to ask a kid!!). She told me later that he replied that if she thought he was weird she should see his mum.

I blame Robert.

Granny Ate Carrots Have Your Bread Robert

The countries the Danube flows through.. Germany.. Austria... etc.. (hey some of those countries have changed their names!!)

Suppose its to be expected with a crazy mom

After my dad I would have been named Andrew William :-3

My mother used to say she'd've named me PENELOPE, if one of her friends hadn't "beaten" her to the name. I'm not fond of pamela...but it's better (IMO) than PENELOPE!

Pinky wrote: Did I tell you guys about my cousin's brother's kid?

They called her Scarlett. That would have been lovely, but their surname is Balls...

True story!

We all joked that the next one would be Ophelia


My sister's sister-in-law called her daughter Jade. Luckily they had boys after that because they planned to name the next girls Amber and Scarlett - that way they'd have their own set of traffic lights! :wah:



A woman decides to name her new baby after a film star.

The vicar says that's OK.

"What are your calling the baby madam"?

"Orson after Orson Wells. The film star and film director".

The vicar replies, " Do you think that's a good idea Mrs Cart".

:wah:

I swear to you that this is true. A high-level executive at my company was named

Harry Glasscock.

I used to work with a chap called Paul Farthing.

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

Had I been a girl, I would have been named Victoria. Imagine all the jokes I'd have had to endure about secrets. :-6
