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 would have been Wilbur. It's my grandpa and father's first name. My name turned out being Victoria Faye [-insert last name here-] and I'm fine with it, and while I don't care for my middle name, I love my last name.

My middle name was [when they found out] I was intended to have been Victoria Jane, but my dad hated that and changed it while my mom was still strung out on painkillers.

Wilbur, eh? Makes me think of Charlotte's Web, it does.

Yeah, I got a lot of flak in elementary school about it.
