I never much liked the name with which I grew up, which is probably why I went through a number of nicknames in my teens until Harlequin stuck when I was sixteen. I was Jamie William Humphreys after Dad, who was James William Humphreys. Considering that one of his (genetic) other sons was also James, I may well have been JWH III!ChinaFigurine wrote:I guess i'm quite lucky then, my first name is Louise, this was the middle name of the little girl my parents had in between me and my big sister, and my middle name, Jane is the same as my sisters middle name.
I now know that I was originally David Paul Garcia, apparently after my mother's brother and one of her gay best friends (the surname being not that of my Spanish father but of my Belizean grandfather). I feel that I would have been more comfortable with David, but Jamie kindled challenges that I would otherwise have missed (and might theefore have become a slightly different person).

[...] Oh, thats my Dutch side of the Family btw
A few weeks ago, a PiP cast member tried to explain Spanish naming traditions to me. Many names apparently contain the surnames of both parents, while Catholic traditions promote the inclusion of New Testament names (regardless of gender). Hence my father being José Maria Ortiz de Larate de Urbinagilesgoat wrote:[...] While in south Italy is pretty common pratice to choose names that are often related to saints of the church [...]
.However, de Urbina, she told me, could have been the surname of either of his parents
