Does your name fit you?

Living in the midwest and in school in the '50's, there were tons of girls by the name of Carol. It was popular at that time.

There are not that many Carol's up here. Maybe two Carolines tht I know that go by Carol.

They spiced-up your name? We have lots of kids named Elvis for Elvis Presley now. I wonder if they get called Elvis Parsley.

Gee and I think you're pretty amusing!

Thank you....but my name isn't amusing...it means 'twilight' :)

That sounds romantic!

The thing is, I can find it in searches now, but i could not say even five years ago.

Now we know where Garden Gerty came from. How wonderful to be a clown. To create happiness and laughter in others. Am ade up middle name, he must have felt it sounded/went really well with your first name. Neat that your daughter liked it so much that your grandaughter now has it. Take care.

So your Dad was ahead of his time. Iknew someone who took part of his wife's name and part of his name to give to his child. She was April and He was Jason. Their daugher was Aprijay (pronounced oprey-j'ai like in French). Anyway, I thought that was the coolest name.

You know, Rachel Sullivan does seem to go with Celtic Eagle really, really well. Terrific name, maybe you should write a novel and use it as a pen name or something.

That is exactly what i have in mind. And also thought about changing my name when money was good. Celticeagle just came to me. It is my writing username. Thanks.

I'm honored that you chose mine to answer first. Hope you have a great time today looking around and finding topics to answer. Take care.

Thank you for the nice welcome words! Yes, this was my first comment on MyLot. I hope I will have great time here and meet new friends! You take care, too!

Thank you!

its just that I don't think most feminine names fit me, oh well, I'm just kind of a misfit at the best of times!

Interesting that you don't care for female names. How about unisex ones?

Glad your name fits you well. My Mother was going for a name that no one would pick on me for, have trouble saying, average. Of all the flowers in the world, I really don't care for lilies. I know someone named Rose, that's a nice flower name. I just think lilies are bland, dull, boring flower. So do most people. They're not even sold in flower stores here. Easter lilies are, but most people like daffodills, jonquils, etc, not lilies. Take care

In some cultures, you can change your name, like a teen becoming an adult or someone starting a new religion. Other than last name for marriage, names aren't usuall changed around here. Maybe you can use those names as pen names for writing. Thanks for responding and take care.

Howdy Lyric. Limey Lyric! It would go well with a Seacaptain story. Hadn't thought of a musical name yet, I'll have to give that a shot, too.

That's pretty exciting. Congratulations to you and your family. My name means Lily. Not much I can do with that. Exp. in school when 1/3 of the girls had the same name. Nothing special about a lily. Take care.

What do you mean there's nothing special about a lily? They're lovely, for a start!

That's cool and good for you. My Mom named me a common name because hers was different and she hated it. I don't hate mine, it's just a really boring, nothing name and I'm not boring or nothing. Oh well. Glad your name means a lot to you now.

The Miss Brazillian and smile sound intersting. Funny how people that don't know each other have trhings in common. TAke care.

I assume that carrying your own chair means the same as our "tooting my own horn" which means to brag or carry on about ones self. Welcome to Mylot. You're at 59 in the (). Glad you possess the Characteristics of an angel. Some parents aim so high. Thanks and take care.

Thanks. I greatly do believe that great things start from small beginnings. In due time I will get to where those guys are now or even supersede them. Persistence and endurance are the keys. God bless :-)

You need a beautiful name that means ever-changing like the seasons. We'll have to think about it and work on it. What do you think now that I've said that? At first I thought stormy, but then you went off on another thought like flaming, angry, peace, and jolly. I once belonged to a group that we named Flaming Arrow society. Flaming Sun would be fun, but you also want it to mean anger, peace, happy, too. But who knows what mood the Flaming Sun is in? Cound be angry, happy, peaceful. We'll have to work on it. Maybe you should post it as a question to see if other people could help you? Interesting discussion starter.

Mine was chosen because all the other names my Mother wanted, my cousins had already named their kids. So to avoid confusion, she named me what she did. But I go to the hospital and there are 5 people with my name.
