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.

Interesting. I was going to be 'James Galbraith' if a boy (if the letter to grandfather is anything to go by.) But they were pretty set on 'Julie-anne' for girl me I hear.

Does Galbraith have a meaning behind it?

Unfortunately if it does - I don't know it. I think it was some sort of family name but details are a little hazy. I'm hoping one day to find out
