My name was suppose to be Nichole Brianne, but my mom switched it around to Brianne Nichole at the last minute at my grandma's suggestion.

DillsMommy replied: My two middle names are Jean--after my mom's mom. And Nichola after my dad's mom. I'm not sure about my first name, I think they just liked it. I do know I was almost Jessica though.

mammag replied: My first name is after my aunt Jeanie and my middle, Marie is after my other aunt Mary-Lou.

HuskerMom replied: Not my first name but I got my middle name Lee from my Grandpa Lee. My grandma was so upset when she found out what my parents picked for my first name because she knew someone she didn't like with that name, but the woman's name was spelled Joanie so my parents spelled my name Joni.

Edited to add: I loved Chips!!

Crystalina replied: I was not named after a person but a song. My parents were hippie-ish (not true hippies) and they named me after the song 'Crystal Blue Persuasion' by Tommy James and the Shondells (in my siggy).
