A friends dog was named nay nay.

A dead relative was named hassletie. I've often wondered what she was like.
What about guys with girl names. I know a couple men named shirley and talked to a client named lacy.

I know several kids ranging from elementary to high school named "Harley"; some parents named them for the bikes; some are rednecks but not all.

And some are boys, some are girls.

Lots of gender anonymous names these days.

I like to think of my first name as sounding like that of a saloon trollop in the old west.

Cool.


I've got a cool sounding first name, if you ask me, of course.


It's referenced in one of the coolest movies and one of the most popular movie lines ever said.

So now I want to know your first name!

I'm a female junior. First, middle, and maiden last name exactly as my paternal grandmother had.

So looking at her tombstone really freaks me out!

But I have only met 2 other people in real life with my same name, and there is one model, and one actress with the same spelling, but pronounced differently, and one capital of a US state I have yet to visit!

Unique names can be kinda quirky, in the fact that you get called all the wrong things but are so delighted when a stranger reads it from a list and nails it right on! I love that. I blame my grandmother's nickname pronunciation as the reason my name is sounded out so funky. LOL

How would you pronounce my first name upon reading it?

Helena

My first name is more commonly a black name, so I've had several people meet me and be a little surprised as they were expecting me to be black. (My college roomate for example)

You were very close on one of those guesses...

Go on you tube and search for "Can I get yo number Mad TV" that will answer the question.

If you've never seen it, you will get a great laugh at least.
