taken from everyone:
1. Are you named for anyone? If so, explain.
My first name was picked because my parents thought it went well with my middle name. My middle name was chosen in honor of my Grandmother Elizabeth.
2. Do you have your children's names picked out already? If so, is there any significance?
If/when James and have a child/children, the first son will be named Daniel Nathan. Daniel comes from the Bible and is also picked because it's the name of James's best friend. Nathan is chosen in honor of James and his father. From what I understand the men in his family have Nathan as the middle name.
3. If you were born a member of the opposite sex what would your name have been?
If I had been born a boy, I don't know what my first name would have been, but my middle name would have been Felder in honor of my father and in memory of my grandfather.
4. If you could re-name yourself what name would you pick and why?
Growing up I would have picked Aurora or Amber or Beryl. Now, I'm so used to my name, I'm not sure ZI would change it. If something happened and I was required to change my name, I would pick something like Elissa, Alaina, or Alanna because I like the sounds of those names.
5. Are there any mispronunciations/typos that people do w/ your name constantly?
Common mispronunctions include Brenda, Randi, Brendan, and Andi. Common typos include Randi, Brandie, Brande, and most annoying to me of all typos: Brandy.
