friday 5; what is in a name?

[archersangel]

These questions were originally suggested by alfvaen .

1) Do you like your birth-name? Why?
it's ok. my last name is kind of long & it is often mispronounced. a few times people have added letters that were not there & made it a different name. it's like the difference between schwartz & schwarzkopf (neither are close to my last name). i'm like; why are you doing that? do they see the first few letters & just assume the rest?

2) If you could change your name to anything else, what would it be?
no idea. but a simpler last name would be nice.

3) What names would you consider giving your children?
i'm not interested in having children but i like the older kinds of names; like elizabeth & katherine. james & robert.

4) If you had a band, what would you name it, and why?
it depends on what kind of music the band would play. i think rum runner would be a good band name. also craig ferguson once suggested that chlamydia would be a good punk band name & i think about that now and then.

5) Is there a name that you completely hate? Why?
any name that the parents changed to spelling of to be unique. like ashley being spelled ashleigh. my apologies if someone reading this has done that. but really, it's ridiculous.
