My mother once did tell what my name would had been if I was born the other gender, and typically I cannot remember now.

If I were born a male, my name would have been Joseph-after my great-grandfather on my father's side. But instead, I was named after my great-grandmother on my mother's side.

If I had been born a boy, my mother was considering such boys names as Brent, Chadwick (yikes!), and Tyler. If I had it my way, I'd switch my name around to Carole (which is my middle name). I find that a nice name, and it reminds me of Christmas when I hear it, and it's my mother's name - 1 great combo!

I might as well be called Steve, cause my parents can never get it right between me and my brother.
I cant see me with any other name really.

what a coincidence- I always refer to you as Amy!
I was originally going to be named Wendy Ellen. Blllech. sounds like a first and last name.
I would like to have a really really norwegian or german name like my relatives...or at least have my name spelled that way like Karin or Karjn.
I like Ingrid and Ingeborg or Elsa.....that's cool.

I was supposed to be an Amy. Long story, but my grandmother named my sisters after her sisters, but when I was born she got to the hospital late(in those days granny could get to the desk and name the baby without the parents consent) and my father ran down before she got there and named me after my mother. I've never thought about a different name. If I had been a boy I would have probably been Edwin, William, or Joseph names that run in the family.

Elliott. However, they say the female spelling is Elliot. I don't like that, so screw what "They" say. Who is they anyway? Theys. Theym. Meh.
I like Aeris, too. Pronounded Air-iss. Aselin, as well.

I'm not making this up:
When I was in the Army over in Germany, there was a gal who was stationed in the Finance Corps office next to my barracks who was notorious for being the base slut.
Her name?
Sharon Johnson. ;D ;D ;D

You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay, and so on and so forth but you doesn't hafta call me JOHNSON!
For some unexplicable reason, I've always wanted the name Alexandria Anastasia Rachel. Everytime I played a game as a child, I'd call myself one of those three names. But I don't like the shortened version of those names, Alex, Stacey, Rache... I don't have any idea why.

Well if I was a boy they were going to call me Duncan which I can't say I like anymore than what I did get saddled with! ;D My Mum wanted to call me Stephanie but my Dad got in there first with a name he'd read in the paper that morning Gisela, and decided 'that's it' Apparently they were so convinced I was a boy they hadn't picked out any girls names and argued for over a week about what to call me so my Dad just plucked a name out of a newspaper and registered that! I guess it could have been a lot worse.................
