almost your name

[certainthings]

Do you know what your name would have been had you been born the opposite sex? Mine was going to be Christopher Michael.

What about what you were almost named? I was almost Crystal. I'm really glad my mom changed her mind on that one. And then at one point she was going to name me Jericho (as a girl) ... at least I'm fairly sure it was that name. That might've been kinda cool.

I was going to be David or Michael. And my mom wanted to name me Megan, but my dad didn't like that.

My name would have been Cody if I were a boy. Or Chad. I can't remember. It started with a C.

*hug*

True, but ehh that's why everybody calls him Joe though Herbert makes me cringe alot. I quite like being a girl.

No one uses my real name anymore with my folks it's just nicknames same with friends. The only time they use it is when somethings wrong or whatever. Mostly I just get called "Sammy" (sometimes Sandy by Dad) or "Girlie" by the folks, so s'not all bad. :D

Totally. They were so badass and Torres was sooo good. He's played a great tournament as has all the players so it's really well deserved that they won.

I might just cheer for Spain because they have so many good looking players, lol.

You guys had a few really awesome matches. I was actually thinking that either you or Portugal would win, did not predict this finale (or the semi-finals) at all.

WORD! Viva España!

And then you could've pretended that you were Ted Danson. :P

Maybe that's just what they want you to believe but really they were going to name you something a little insane.

Way to take a stand. :P

Yeah, it's Lee.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

It's a really pretty (and to me) unique name.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I do like the name Benjamin. *nods*

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

It's just so ... different.

LOL yay you! I didnt feel like copying the ~ again like I did on the Rogue Forum! hahah

We were ok but after the whole Boulahrouz thing it got just too much I think.....

Ohh there are some awesome Danish player which I totally cant remember now. I know Thomasson, isnt he coaching now? and Smiegel or however thats spelled, and then there was Gronkjear who I adored!!! and I was in LOVE with the Laudrup brothers! had a pic of a goal of one of them on my wall for years growing up!

"Adly" is my grandfather's first name, it means justice in Arabic. I love it. I think if I have a daughter, I'll name her that, but spell it different... Adlee or Adleigh.

As for "Carina" - it's the name of one of the stars in Orion, which my dad has always been obsessed with. All winter every time any of us go outside we look up for Orion. We're douches.


(I made that icon my default because with all the alkdjflakdjflka lately in fandom, that's the face I'm usually making. Not to you though!)

Ohhhh I like that! specially in combination with Michelle! :)

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Maybe the next time round, eh?

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Katherine does seem to suit you more. *nods*

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I'm going to pretend it would've been Chad.

[tiffiny.livejournal.com]

My name would have been Linden if I were a boy. I kind of wish they would have named me that anyway.

[twofourteen.livejournal.com]

Go right ahead. :D

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Is there a story behind Sammy?

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

It's grown on me, somewhat but if I say my name together it just sounds like my name is Michelley.

[crackedbuthappy.livejournal.com]

I had a whole wealth of names my parents wanted to give me. My mom wanted Autumn, my dad wanted Storm or Sapphire Crystal as a girl. For a boy, I would have been Forrest via my mom or Bang, Clash, or...Logan. You'll notice some themes here - country and boring from my mom and weird and X-Men related from my dad. And as it is, I ended up Amber Lee at birth (pronounced like Kimberly). But, I never get called that. My mother's called me Luke since the day I was born and my father calls me Angel.

I don't even know what I'm blathering on about now. So, have a nice day lol.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Hell, yeah. That name for the motherfucking WIN.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Holy by golly wow.

What is your name? Should I know this? Will I feel like an idiot when you tell me? (probably yes)

[pippilottah.livejournal.com]

You talking about the match on those forums as well? ;)

The what thing? I don't remember that, I don't think. Maybe. Help me out here.

I'm pretty sure Jon Dahl (Tomasson) is still playing. Michael Laudrup is coaching. I think his brother might be too.
Hee, Smeichel was a very good goalkeeper but I just remember him yelling all the time. When him and the Laudrup brothers played, I was a bit too young to really care about football but I do remember them.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

*nods* That is really nice.

Haha. I don't think looking at stars makes one a douche. :P
