What would your parents have named you if you were a boy?

[MrsMongoose]

Or a girl, if you're a man!

I'd have been Ross Lewis Surname.

[LegoDragon]

Henrik

[Tea1Sugar]

James or William. My brothers got called them instead.

[Yoghurty]

Andrew

[RedlipsAndSlippers]

Maximilian Alexander then my Mums long maiden name, then surname :/ Quite pleased that didn't happen, would've been a nightmare to fit on forms.

[aquashiv]

Eamon

[SupermansBigRedPants]

Mum said if I'd been a boy I'd have been adopted out in case I turned out like my dad, even after explaining that having male genitalia would not automatically make me like my father and my older sister is EXACTLY like him she still sticks to this.

In the past she has said she'd have called me jason. My dad would have called me jeff. 'Luckily' my twat of a half brother got that instead.

I love my girl name, luckily while it screams 80's when my middle name is included my first is actually biblical.

[AintNobodyGotTimeFurThat]

Stefan.

I think my parents wanted to nickname me Stef, no matter what. :)

[MrsDibble]

I would have been George, which is fine now, but when I was at school (state) would have been a disaster! A boy called George would have had no chance at my school!
