Have you ever come across a character or actor who has your name? I'm not asking in order to suss out your real name, just so you know.
I haven't, but there is a character in "The Winds of War" who has my dad's name - both first and last name. The reason I find it a bit weird is that my dad was in the service during WWII when this mini-series takes place.
My own name isn't all that common, but there is a well-known actress with the same first name as mine.
My given name is quite annoying and ugly...It's too English sounding, I don't care for it at all (my mother's idea, lovely woman, she claims to love me despite the awful given name lol)
It does not roll off the tongue!
My surname is great, very Irish and this is what my people at work call me by...I insist upon it quite frankly
I have always hated my first name. When I was growing up a lot of people assumed I was named after this famous actress, which was not true. I tried to get folks to call me by a nickname or my middle name, but it never stuck. 🙁
shareYou've made me curious as to what your name is, now.
shareI have never seen my middle name that''s for sure.
shareI seem to remember you talking about this before - a family name, right?
A few generations ago, it was common to give the firstborn - whether male or female - the mother's maiden name as a middle name. It made for some rather strange middle names.
First name, sure. Last name, not one.
shareAlthough Andy King sounds cool, it’s quite common in the UK. I don’t know of any actors or characters, but the have been at least 3 that have played in the English football league.
shareMy first name is not very common. I don't mind it but the one annoying thing is that people get it wrong a lot. There is only one actress I know of with this name.
shareI only know one actress who has the same first name as I do.
