*sigh* I was sposed to be called James but the newspaper manked it up, my parents decided to stick with Lee, which was gonna be my middle name.

My parents couldn't decide so they bought a baby book, got someone to choose a number between 3 - 1,047 [The page numbers] and they chose the top name on that page.
So yeah, thats where Bethany came from ;] But Bethie is my own little creation, and that is what I answer to these days.

Ellis.
08-01-2006, 02:03 AM
My dad's name is Eduardo and my Mom's name is Cristina so the first names of my sister and I were to be the closest names in the name book which were as close to my dad's name and our middle names would be the ones in the book which were closest to my mom's name. So in the end, My name ended up to be Ellis and my middle name became Christer (instead of Christopher :'(, it sounds so strange to me) while my sister became Eydie Christine. Yes, a strange name for a strange girl. I like the way you think. ;)

Lol k.

My dad is named Eduardo and my mom is named Cristina.

So they decided that the first names of the children would be the closest names to my dad's name in the baby book. Whereas the middle names would be the names closest to my mom's name in the baby book.

Ellis, being close to the name Eduardo and being a boy's name, was chosen to be my first name. Where as Christer, was near my mom's name so it was chosen to be my middle name.

Same thing goes with my sister, her name is Eydie Christine.
