National Name Yourself Day

Real Estate Agent with David Tracy Real Estate #555994

National Name Yourself Day 

 

Today is National Name Yourself Day. The keepers of the National Day Calendar could not find where or who started the Name Yourself Day. When I received notification of what National Day today was;  I remembered that when I was a little girl I wanted my name to Suzanne; not Sussie Ann.

 

That got me to thinking. If I was change my name today what would I name my self? Also how could I incorporate this to get more hits on my Face Book Page? My idea is to offer a $10 gift card to Starbucks if they guess my name correctly.

 

One hint : I would name myself after a charter on a current series on TV who has short hair. Can you guess?

 

Better yet what would you name yourself? Leave your comment below!

When I was in my teens, I told my mom that Tammie wasn't an adult name. I said only kids have the name Tammie. I asked her what people would call me when I got older? She said, "They'll call you Miss Tammie." I thought to myself, "I hope not". Then I moved to Tennessee and guess what they call me...Miss Tammie.

Sussie - I am not exactly sure what other name I would like to have. I have never really thought about that.

 Good morning Sussie. I'm not exactly sure what I would name myself. I think I will just leave my name like it is.

My name is Margaret (family used to call me Margaret Ellen).  I was thrilled when I left home and could drop the Ellen.  Well, you can imagine the number of people who want to rename me...Peggy, Marge, Maggie...no my name is Margaret, I would say.  Those who persisted would say,"Well, I'm going to call you Peggy".  "I don't like that name," I would say.  They'd still call me Peggy.  So one day, totally annoyed by yet another imbecile who insisted on calling me Peggy or Marge, I changed my name to Maude.  Not just Maude but Maude said with a hard and long New York accent!  It worked.  No one asked me again if I went by another name!  I did this for about a year when I finally got tired of the joke and went back to introducing myself as Margaret.  However,  if people ask me what name beside Margaret I go by, I say Maude...with a hard New York accent.  I love the shocked look.  One even replied that Maude is such a harsh name.  Well, then...call me Margaret!  It's a legacy name, I'm named after two grandmothers and I like the name.  I giggle inside but all they see is a smug smile.  Who knew defending your name is such hard work?

Tammie White you made me LOL! I named my oldest daughter Tommie... she did not like her name either. But I still love her name. 

Debbie Laity This was funny to me too!

Troy you have a great first name anyway...

Michael Thornton you remind me of a western gun slinger... you should think about that.

Margaret Kapranos what a wonderful story... I have a second cousin by law who's name is Mar y-Elizabeth.... so pretty and she too dropped the Elizabeth. I was sadden by that as I thought her name was so beautiful. Just like yours I like Margret-Ellen. But I will call you Margret if you wish.
