Name stories!

[feelslike-2day.livejournal.com]

I love to hear stories behind names! For example, My cousin was named Julisa because her parents each liked Julie & Lisa.

As well my friend's last name is Fischer and for the longest time growing up, she thought 'fish' was spelled 'fisch'. :)

Anyone else have any interesting/amusing stories about names?

My friend is Fionna, and she said that her mother found one baby book once, where it was spelled with the two n's. And she decided that she'd keep the book, just to prove that she just didn't make it up.

She can't find that book anymore, haha. And Fionna thinks that her mom just added the extra n so that she'd always have to correct people.
