    My mum wanted to call me India and my dad wanted to call me Sally, so they came to a compromise and called me Lucy?!

    If I was a boy I was going to be called Oliver.

    My name was going to be Alexander, which I would have changed at the first chance I got as soon as I learned what a complete and utter sCee yoU Next Tuesday my father was.

    Not that I don't want to change the name I have now which every keeps on telling me is a lovely name as if that is going to change my opinion

    Little Britain - Daffyd Thomas first episode

    I do find it funny, on a personal note that Matt Lucas is a Jew.

    Not that Jews shouldn't be gay, but anyway. LMAO (no pun intended).

    My middle name. :blush: Too many sexual connotations. Which is why I never use it. Just like being called Dick (Richard).

    Probably Samantha if I was a girl.

    Not that it stopped anyone else calling me that during school anyway... :D

    If i was a boy i would have been called daniel.

    If mum got her choice i would have been called rebecca. Dad wasnt keen because two of his workmates had just had rebeccas so it was quite common amongst people he knew s wanted a different name so it didnt look like he had copied.

    If my dads mum had a choice id have been called alice maud. Apparently that was my great grandmothers name and my nan was convinced dad had told her i would be named after her. They never intended to but nan wont let it drop! Thank god my parents werent influenced by her.

    If I was a boy I was going to be called John.

    When my mother told me this, a kind of glow lit up her face as though it was utterly amazing and fascinating - which puzzled me even more.

    I'm really sorry, but I just wondered why my parents had no imagination. Etc.

    Rachel - my dad really liked the name. It's too serious a name for me.

    I would have been Alan.

    My sons would have been Rachel and Victoria if they'd been girls.

    If I had been a girl I'd probably have been called Stella as my dad was a drunk.

    My mum once told me if I was a boy, she'd have called me Gregory. Nice name, that.
