Is there some sort of unusual incident or interesting anecdote, regarding how you got your first or middle name?

A woman gave birth to her daughter in a car, and the kid’s middle name is now CAMRY. The video on that story is here
So, do YOU have a story to share with the group? You, or someone you know? (I don’t.)

The day before my baby-naming, my parents realized that my initials were ASS, so they gave me a middle name.
Camry is quite a nice name actually! Never thought of that…but can you imagine when the child asks…mom, dad who was I named after….
I was going to name my son such and such….and then realized he would have had the initals….A.D.D. Attention, Deficit, Disorder. I changed it real fast!
I knew a gal who was NEVER called Barbara, because her initals were B-I-B.
GUESS what she was called by her friends…
@JackAdams, This is a bit off subject and no disrespect to the post. But, where I live, we have an anchor man and his last name is Semen…Bob Semen. My son has a hoot every time he hears it. I would have seriously changed my last name, when I turned 18!

Yikes, I’d be changing it, soon as I hit 18! Sorry, but I wouldn’t be the one to carry on the family name!
Everyone with that surname, so far as I have been able to determine, is CAUCASIAN.
LOL< LOL, LOL….ironic isn’t it!

I’m out of here, I’m not responding to those kind of jokes…talk to you on another post!
I thought she would NEVER leave!
I forgot to add LOL to my previous post. My public apologies are offered.
Yes, I like that kind of bread, also.
It’s Greek, as I recall…
It’s not bread, it’s UUUUUUU!
pi·ta (pē‘tə)
n. A round flat bread of Middle Eastern origin that can be opened to form a pocket for filling. Also called pocket bread.
[Modern Greek pētta, pita, pie, cake, bread.]
PITA in my definition is short for – A Pain in the Ass! Now you have popped out and become a hemorroid….........:)

@Jack, just teasing you, don’t be mad!
Nah. I can take a joke.
Besides, you are someone whom I like, respect and admire…
Otherwise, you’d be dead now. (J/K)
Have you ever noticed that, on this site, some who moderate, are not moderate enough?
Yes, I have noticed and I have sent an email! Oh forget it, it won’t do any good!
God bless you.
Let me know where I can mail your money order.

Okay, thank you, and thank you for answering my email. Have a good evening!
No interesting story. My middle name is my grandmothers name.
Not really. I’m the youngest of 3, my parents were both the youngest of 5 in their families, so I was the last of my cousins to be born and at that time noone was named after my grandfather, so whoopi, I got the two most awkward to spell and pronounce names!
