My company's end-of-year celebration was held at Dave & Buster's, a game/food/bar place. The waitress who served drinks at our party?

Tequila.

She confirmed that it was her given name, and that it came from her Mom being drunk on it when she got pregnant.

Poor thing.

That's like my mum joking and telling people I should've been named Brandy. Thankfully I'm a Meghan.

1) Oddly enough, I just went to my mom's job's Christmas party at Dave and Buster's. My first time there. I loved it!

2) Wow...that's got to be the worst way to name a kid I've ever heard of.

O.o wow! That is the kind of story you want to BURY underneath the family tree, not announce to the world by way of the poor thing's name! Yikes!

Did she seem particularly embarrassed or annoyed by the meaning behind her name, or having to explain it? I know I would be! In fact, if I were here, I would have had my name legally changed long before I was old enough to hold down a job! But that is just me...

Some people's mothers!

It's a bad name, but I have to give her mom props for not lying about where she got it from.

Thats....interesting. We used to joke that my sister should be named Margarita....but it was a joke. I have a friend named Brandy but she was named after the song.

I avoid food and drink names as a rule...
