What is YOUR name?

Do you like it?

Have you ever wished you had a different name?  What was it?

I'm Jodie Marie. I was named after a dog on a detective programme just after I was born (throughout the pregnancy they thought I was a boy so they struggled to find "the perfect name". Marie was after my mums middle name and my great grandmother, Maria. The name they'd chosen was Adam John. They'd also considered Joshua John. Both of which I love, but are used by other family members now. Other names they'd considered were Abigail and Jessica. I like my name. I always have. Its not too common and it kind of fits me I guess. For a while I choose to use the pseudonym Abby Knight. I adore Abby and it's what my husband and I would have named our daughter had our last name not been Abbott.

My sister is Sophie Rebecca. I chose the first name (and it's still my absolute favourite name). Rebecca is what my mum actually wanted to call her. Had she been a boy, my mum wanted to call her Joshua or Aaron (well she spelled it Aarron) and my dad wanted James/Jimmy. I much prefer James to joshua or aaron.
