and I know I've talked to lots of people about this before, but I was reminded of it again.
It's names.
I love my name. I really do. After kindergarten and first grade, I didn't get jibed so much with "London Bridge is Falling Down," though there was a revival in fourth grade when we had to learn a song called "London's Burning." Now it's stuff about France for some reason. London's in England.
But anyway, I love it and all, but there's always that pointless question of "If you had to change your name, what would you change it to?"
My first answer was always "Fred." If my brother had named me (he was 3, remember), that's what I would have been. But these days I've expanded my options, and for some reason I love some guys' names for girls. (Not all of them, though. A girl called William? Yuck.) Current favorites:
1. Fred
2. Lucas
3. Unrelated, I know, but a middle name of Edelweiss.
4. Andromache
And the like. But you can call me whatever you want.
Within reason.
