you and sibs

I am new to this community, so this has probably been done before but I am curious as to what YOUR names are, and the names of your siblings and how you feel about them?

I am the oldest of three sisters. We are all three years apart. We are, in order:

Jennifer Leigh

Cheryl Ann

Valerie Cecilia

I used to hate my name growing up, it's pretty plain but as names tend to do, it grew on me over my lifetime, haha. I have personally met hundreds of Jennifers and dozens of Jennifer Leighs over my lifetime (I will be 30 this year, GASP!) but I do like my name. I love Cheryl's name but feel blah about her middle name, and I ADORE Val's combo of Valerie Cecilia.

Oh, Cheryl and I also each have one son- she has Ethan Riley (9) and I have Holden James (7).

edit: I forgot to add that I chose Cheryl's name when I was two. My mom gave me the choice between Cheryl and Heidi for the first name.

Haha, my mom said the same thing about Lindsay. The funny thing is, out of all the kids in my high school (it was pretty small, so I knew everyone), there really were only two or three Lindsays that were older than me by 3+ years. Everyone else was a few months younger, so my mom always jokes that she helped start the trend;) She didn't care about the popularity of my brother's name -- she just loved it and was going to use it no matter what.
