My middle name, Ann, was chosen because of my dad's aunt, "Auntie Ann." They found out after she died that her real name wasn't Ann, she just liked "Ann" better.

My name came because of a dream. The doctors told my parents I had a strong heartbeat so I had to be a boy. Three nights before I was born, my Dad had a messed up dream and went on a hunt for a girl name. Diana comes from the moon goddess, and Lynn....well my Mom's friends name..Dad didn't want to give me a middle name, so Mom slipped it in.

My grandmother's name was Janet, my aunt's name is Jan. My mom wanted to name me something similar yet different. She was working at an insurance company while pregnant with me, and one of her clients was a little old black lady named Janna. My mom really liked the name and the way it was spelled, and asked the lady if she could name me after her. The little old lady was thrilled because she had no grandaughters, and was glad that my mom would want to name me after her. So my name was then Janna.

My sister was named after my father's sister Marie. My oldest brother was named after my father Dean. My other brother was named after my mother's brother Patrick. I have no idea who I was named after. Maybe they got tired of trying to figure out which side to name me after and decided on neither. I'm a misfit.

Lumpy and scarred huh.... Just one of the many side effects from being repeatedly dropped as a child....

Because of the spelling, did you ever get called Ally?

I wouldn't let people call me Ally because I went to gymnastics with a girl named Allie and she was fat and had visible holes in her teeth and it grossed me out. Al is ok though. Or my last name.

My middle name is my mom's middle name.
My sister's middle name is my paternal grandmother's middle name (with different spelling) and her first name is my maternal grandmother's middle name.
My older brother's first name is the same as my father's and his middle name is my uncle's first name.
My younger brother's middle name is the same as my father's and paternal grandfather's middle name.
I don't know why they did that to us.
Who/What were you named after - linzi - 12-19-2008
My dad's name is Joe. My grandfather wanted me called Josephine and my parents wanted Lindsey but mom decided to spell it how it sounds...Linzi, and they threw in Jo for a middle name to compromise so it's like Mary-Ann but Linzi-Jo....I cannot stand it. I only go by Linzi or mom.
My oldest daughter's name is Alyson Elisabeth and then there's Kaitlyn Paige but everyone calls her KatieBell...I don't even know where they got that from. She even introduces herself that way. I did not name them after anyone...I just liked those names.
