    Unless it's your last name, you really need to slap your parents.

    Anyway... any of you out there? I'm here to counsel you in some therapy sessions.

    My name is Aaron Goodman. My younger brother is Abe. That's Jewish for John Smith. We grew up in the South. In the late 60s and early 70s. If I'd been born black I'd have had fewer fights after school. But we learned to kick redneck ass early. So it's all good.

    We gave our daughters double barrelled names (Amber-Lynn and Iona-Syke) to allow them to pick the name they prefer. Amber didn't like her name all that much in school (kids used to call her people called her Anne Boelyn or off with her head) but she's grown into it I think.

    Iona's too young to realise her name's different.

    my name is joy, so i have had people sing "joy to the world" and "i've got the joy joy joy joy down in my heart" oh and "happy happy joy joy" to me pretty much my whole life. it was annoying for a while but now i'm pretty much used to it. joy is a different name but it suits me well i think.

    I was called Walnut as a play on my last name after getting racked once for forgetting to wearing a cup to a football practice. They used to chant "Crack Willy's Walnuts" to get me fired up. :)

    Amanda's a pretty common name...I had a kid make fun of my last name in first grade, but pfft, whatever. His last name was Graham so everybody called him Cracker. I've personally always been intrigued by unique names. I knew a girl named Apolyne (I think that's how you spell it, Apple-Lynn is the pronunciation) in high school, that was probably the strangest name I'd heard.

    My cousin's youngest child's name is Ayame (Uh-yah-mee), but we only make fun of it because it "came to him in a dream." Hahahaha.

    My real names Emelia, but when I was little I couldn't pronounce it, and called myself Pealie instead. Since then its been a pet name at home, and when I was around 7 or 8 I got some stick for it. Bah. Pealie's an awsome name. Do YOU know anyone called Pealie??? Or Emelia?? (In that spelling). Haha. I rule :)
