My name is my name. It doesn't mean anything to anyone else. When I was born my parent's were so indifferent to having a kid that their friend name me. I have an Irish name and a German heritage LOL!
I went to school with a kid who was also named Patrick, but they called him Rick. I thought that was so cool. People called me Pat until I was out of high school. Now the only people who use the diminutive are members of my family. I hate "Pat."
I don't understand why women change their last names when they get married. I know some who have had 5 last names. A friend of MrsWD's has three boys and they all have different last names. It has to be incredibly confusing. My name is my name and it hasn't ever changed. I like that about it.
