How did you get your name?

I was named after a Miss Universe. My mom said her mother was a customer of theirs and they were ecstatic to know about her beautiful daughter.

I think it was a name that my mom heard on a radio show while I was still in her tummy. And it must start with an "R" as most of my cousins name start. I just don't know what is so special about the "R" in our family. But I still follow it naming my son thereafter. My mom wasn't really that creative and was very considerate. She probably thought I would have problems writing a very long name. So she gave me a very short one with only 4 letters. I usually am done writing my name before my classmates are through. Thanks mom!

I get it from my mom! My mom gave me my name. I did ask her what the meaning behind my name but according to my mom it does not has any meaning. She just like it.

hi lady, My Mom got it from her favorite song and for 26 years i only met one person same name and spelling i thought i am the only one happy mylotting

According to my mother, a nurse have given them the list of names in their hospital. When they stumbled in the name with a meaning of "Smart Friend", they loved it and they give that name to me.

My name is Wycliffe Nuing. My first name is from John Wycliffe, my second name is from the name of a mythical warrior god of my people,the Iban called Bungai Nuing.

do not understand where the origin of the word of my name was taken by my parents, but when giving a name for my child comes from browsing on the internet

Primarily I got my name because my parents gave it to me. On how they came to naming me what they named is a long story of the tradition, of the community I belong to, in India. My first name is my surname. Second name is the family's guardian God's name, Third name is the name of the family lineage, Fourth name is the name of the snake god my maternal grandfather worshiped, Fifth name is that of an uncle who had passed away before I was born. Sixth name is my own name. Seventh name is the name of my community. Agreed it is like a loco drawing a hundred freight cars, but still it is my name. Officially, however, I use my first and sixth names.

My mother and father chose my name from an article in a newspaper. They liked the name and that is how i came to have the name i have. the entire time that i attended school I only met one other person that had the same name as i do but she spelled it differently.

My father named me, I don't know where he got the first part of my first name but Stiffy came from a tennis player that he liked...my user name is my name BTW...

My dad just came up with my name. I don't where he got it

My mom just wanted to have all our names start in letter J. So she got Jasmin for because she can't think of any name that time that starts in letter J... :)

My first name is a combination of the names of my parents. the first two letters of my name came from the first two letters of my mother's name, while the last three letters of my name came from the first three letters of my father's.

My mother named me after my grandmother.

I don't know how i got my name.But my name means 'to be a light to others'
