Joshua didn't work and they didn't plan for that so they picked the month I was conceived in and the nearest flower in the hospital room.

I am a junior, so I have the same name as my father. This has caused all sorts of problems:

- when Arlington wasn't going to let me vote because they said I moved to Spokane, Washington, despite the fact that my dad and I have different SSNs and haven't lived in the same house together since 1992 (1994 if you count a couple summers in college).

- My dad's health insurance got messed up when they thought he'd moved to Arlington, where my dad has never lived. I still get hearing aid ads in the mail and shit like that because they think I'm retired and 73 years old.

If I had been a girl I would have been Katrina.

I dodged a bullet on that one.

Dylan means creature from he sea. They got the spelling from Bob Dylan.

My dad wanted to name me Seamore. Never been totally sure if this was a joke or not.

I am a junior too, which I hate. But I guess I'm stuck with it!

Other names considered were Tom and Harry. Dunno what my gurl name was

My parents really went outside the box and named me after my father, "Patrick".

But I'm thankful for that otherwise I would have been Marty. yuck. If I was a girl, I'm not sure I've ever been told. I had a sister born a year later and they named her Jennifer, so that probably would have been it.

If your name is Richard and their options were "Tom, Dick, and Harry", that would be awesome.

My dad is a nerd who has two major obsessions: Jaws and famed long running goofy as hell vampire soap opera Dark Shadows

My dad suggested the name Curtis to my mom and they went with it. He later revealed he picked it because the creator of Dark Shadows is named Dan Curtis and the show was such a big part of his life growing up

My brother Shawn is Shawn Michael Page. He suggested Shawn Michael to my mom and she liked it so again they went with that. Years later they watched Jaws together (my dad’s favorite thing ever) and my dad had a smirk on his face leading up to the reveal that Chief Brody’s two sons are named Shawn and Michael, that was the first time my mom realized

Oh man I'm going to do this now.

Do you think Tony Al Rogers is too obvious?

Dark Shadows is GR8

My friend had a DVD box set and when we went camping in his parents' trailer one summer we binge watched the entire first 2 seasons.

Sounds like your parents really love Back To The Future
