I like it just fine, but younger people laugh when they hear it and say, "Are you a nun?" Nope. Just a Southern Protestant of a certain age whose family recycles names.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1994548621354458694.post-40213800029790842272011-11-20T19:38:48.907-05:002011-11-20T19:38:48.907-05:00My name is taken from the Roman family name Julius...My name is taken from the Roman family name Julius. So does that mean I'm emperor-like? I don't know.

Dallas is my dad's name.)<br /><br />baby: Madeleine Elizabeth (hubby picked Madison, but I thought it was too trendy. We both liked Maddie.

My first name is Virginia (although that grandmother changed her name later) and my middle name, Christine, is a family middle name on my dad's side. I named my first daughter simply names I liked, although it turned out that her first name was my husband's great-grandmother's name (no one knew) and her middle name is also his sister's middle name. For the youngest, I did family names on purpose. Sophie was my great-grandmother, and Inez after my grandmother who I was very close to.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14179273634809557825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1994548621354458694.post-47105094954890200742011-11-19T19:08:09.607-05:002011-11-19T19:08:09.607-05:00This post made me think of the actress Poppy Montg...This post made me think of the actress Poppy Montgomery who was born Poppy Petal Donahue.
