Ahhh
I only know who she is because my Dad once claimed he wanted to call me Agammemnon, and mum vetoed him.

My mother considered Miranda
(thing to be marvelled at) but decided against it as I'd be labelled "Randy". Oh how apt.

Better than being named 'Clytemnestra'
It'd be shortened to 'Clit', and no bloke'd be able to find you.

You can protest all you want, the kids will call you Clit.

apparantly I came within a hair

With my surname?!

I just eneded up with the most boring name evarrr. Sorry Applebite.

Haha, that's okay.
I like my name but it is fairly dull. My mum was always set on it though, even if I'd been a boy, I probably would have ended up with the same name.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Wed 2 Jun 2010, 11:06, Reply)

Apparently at the first scan they thought I was twin boys.
Offended much?

Mum was going to call me William and David.

something about the way I was lying in the womb

Yeah but your name is awesome.
I love my Nanna's name. Lena Valente, but she is does have the benefit of being Italian. I'd like to change my middle name to Lena, but it doesn't work with my first name, I'd have to do it the other way round.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Wed 2 Jun 2010, 11:15, Reply)

That is a lovely name
I have two middle names, one's boring, the other's my old family name, and I'm obligated to have a son to pass it on to...
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Wed 2 Jun 2010, 11:16, Reply)

I kind of have
though it's hard to remember who calls me what. For example, Applebite met me as one, Al met me as the other. I just let people call me whatever they want.

To which of course someone said "Ok, What-ever-you-want"

Well
I'll just call you Lampito then

Facebook name is fine
Pretty much any incarnation. I'm known as Dozzles to one person, though it's only her that calls me it

I rather like that name
but it seems a bit personal. I'm sure I'll think up a good variation

Oh on here called me Lampito
I meant who calls me what IRL

I might call her Clytemnestra

If my sister had been a boy, my mum wanted to call her
"Saracen" after the Gladiatior. Considering my last name, it actually goes fairly well.

Yeah the last one's not entirely related.

I told a woman at work what I wanted to name my hypothetical children

When the kid was born she changed it though, thankfully.

but I want to call them Scarlett and Maisie. She stole Scarlett, having told everyone she was going to call it Charlotte.

When I used to want a kid
I told my cousin my name and she took it, but then she changed it, and then she had a boy, so she couldn't call him that anyway.
And now everyone is calling their kid that so they're welcome to it, and I changed my mind last year, so I won't be having any.
