I am actually names after my father, well the feminine derivative of his name that is. However, the only time I have ever been called by my full Christian name was if I was in trouble as a child, otherwise I had a special family name plus everyone else gave me an abbreviation of my real name. LOL

That's a really pretty name. My name is Julie (Yuliya in Russian) because I was born on the first of July.

Me, My Mom and my sisters are all namesakes. I share a middle name with one of my sisters and my Mom~ we all have her Mom's middle name (my grandma). My oldest sisters were named after my Mom's mom and my uncle. Me and my other sister are named after songs (my Father loved music, singing and playing the guitar). All of our names can be shortened into boy's names and mine is asexual (boy or girl). Did I lose you yet? Can you guess any of our names?
