[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 613417, member: 1514"] Well since I am late, and everyone knows my pick would be Scott, I will just tell you how I picked my three boys names. Billy is a Fifth. No choice in his name. Jamie is actually Anthony James. Anthony for his dad and James for Tony's father who got seriously injured right before I got pregnant and we werent sure he would actually live much past Jamie's birthday. Cory ... well, we dont know. LOL. I had been told my entire pregnancy that he was going to be a girl so I only had girls names picked out.[FONT=arial][/FONT] Lauren or Meghan. I think the way I got the name Cory (in my drug induced haze) was that the news was on TV in my room. At the time, there were tons of news reports about[FONT=tahoma][SIZE=4] [LEFT][COLOR=#222222]María Corazón Sumulong "Cory" Cojuangco Aquino was a Filipina politician who served as the 11th President of the Philippines, the first woman to hold that office, and the first female president in Asia[/COLOR][/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT]. I think she was being ousted or something. They always referred to her as Cory Aquino. I think that is how I got the Cory part. Allen just seems to go with it for some reason and I cant tell you how many Cory Allen's I have either met or read about. Another thing I made sure of was that their initials didnt spell anything bad. Now the names I ended up calling all my kids ended with that "eeee" sound...Billy, Jamie, Cory. Easy to yell. However, I did think ahead and Billy is now William to everyone but family. Jamie is only Jamie to family....he goes by either Anthony or his last name because of being in the military. Cory is still Cory but I did think that if he had ever become a doctor, lawyer or President, he could go by C. Allen M. Sounds distinguished. Of course, no chance of that! One funny thing is you can use family names for middle names. My middle name is my mother's maiden name...Scott. And I was doing a Google search a few years ago and found someone with my exact maiden name...Janet Scott Castine. Now that is a very odd combo! By the way, Castine isnt my last name now. [/QUOTE]
