My ex-husband wanted to name our son Fabio. We settled on Jadon. When I told my son as a teenager what name I saved him from, he replied, “Mom! I love that name!” Incredulously, I replied, “Jadon…” and he interrupted, “Call me Fabio!” 😂

It was my dad’s turn to name the baby- I was supposed to have been “Jimmie Harold Jones JR.”
Surprise! I was a girl…
They kept Jimmie, added Kaye…
Jimmie Kaye
Is what they named me.
I was teased a lot, especially with the last name Jones

Virginia Ernestine after my grandmothers. Joke was they were going to call me Virgin Ernie🤣

My dad was on a business trip to Pittsburgh when I was born. He jumped on a train and came home immediately. My mother was ready to name me TeddyLynn. Dad said nope and I guess they just scrambled trying to find a name they could agree on.

Zoe. But my dad hated it. Said if mom wanted that, then next kid would be Beauregard. They settled on Kelly. So the story goes.

Aloysius, dunno Dad liked it. As Mom was wheeled in for C-secton she told the doctor " Don't let him name the baby" lmao

So sad as much as I do not like my name I was nearly named Rebecca. Sorry but neither are my choice.

If I were a boy, I would have been Paul Raymond. I would have named my son that, but the name didn't go well with his dad's last name. At least he got Paul for a middle name. If my son had been a girl, he would be Samantha Rose.

I don't know about me, but my oldest daughter's alternate name was to be Brandon if she was a boy; but she married a Brandon instead!

My dad wanted to name me Prudence

Jacob was almost Lucien
Ruby was almost nothing
Theodore was almost Robert III
Elena was almost Clementine

Stephen Ray and Stephanie Rochelle were the romantic names I picked out for my future kids. My son is Daniel Evan, and my daughter is Jessica Allison.

Greg, I was a big baby they thought I would be a boy, wrong

Lol the female of Robert Joe.

Michelle,😀not a Bad choice😍But iam Nancy😀

I win..i was almost named louvisa

Juliet almost was mine 😁

Crystal

Carrie Ann

Mary

No, but I was born in the 60’s to a couple of partying fools, so I’m lucky my name isn’t Narnia or some such nonsense.

I was supposed to be Patrick, even the doctor said I was a boy, but SURPRISE!

My parents tried abortion by injection twice but they failed. The y never wanted to have me but I made, so my Uncle named me a name means victorious.

You tell who could I have been

I was supposed to be Mia (MY-uh, not ME-uh). Until Mom saw a tv show/movie about an elephant named Mia. She thought I would end up being teased, so she changed her mind. I think I would've been ok – not like I've never been called Ernie or URINE, ya know?! 🙄😂
