If Kitty Wells Married Conway Twitty, She Would Be...
Barbara Hopper
Sometimes it's fun to report on the incongruous combinations of names in
our ancestry.
Poor Kitty would have become Kitty Twitty.
Your old Auntie Lilly may have been "a Drain on her father's side!"
My initials before marriage were B.A.H. for Barbara Ann Hopper; then I
married a man with the last name of Golka.
As a newlywed, I wanted to monogram EVERYTHING, so I started with my
suitcases.
ARRR-R-R-GH !
And that's right where I stopped >(;^)
Anyone else have some silly Combination, Name or Initial stories?

My daughter is M.E., and my son is A.E.... The latter seemed bland
until I wrote him an IUO one day...
I like the [New England?] tradition of using surnames as first names.
Combined with their propensity for marrying cousins, I have a Lyon

One of my favorites is a Joe BLOW, who was on a CW pension list with

My mom was once called into a parent-teacher conference,
because my 10-year-old brother had put his intials, D.A.M.,
at the top of his workpage. The none-too-bright teacher

had a customer come in the office, a young lady named Female Baby Jones.
She pronounced her first name as "faMALLee". It seems her parents couldn't
agree on a name at the hospital, so they just put Female Baby on the birth
certificate. Never bothered to change it, Mom came up with a different
pronunciation, and left it that way.....

Way back when I was in school, my best friend's parents had decided all
their children would have the same middle initial (not the same name,
though). So Karen's initials were KAD, and her siblings were RAD, LAD,
MAD, and CAD.
When I got married, my initials changed from JAT to JAP. I'm not sure
it was an improvement!

My younger son asked me one day where his middle name KENT came from.
He really liked it and was curious. He evidently had imagined it as
being some long-lost relative way-back where...
He was heartbroken when I told him that his mother and I both smoked
Kent cigarettes at the time and just thought it sounded like a nice
name. :(
He still calls me!

I've enjoyed them and it has reminded me of dozens of memories from the
past, my favorite probably is from my days working in a payroll office of a
child protective agency where one of our charges, very young and illiterate,
had a baby girl and named her (this is the pronunciation) Pah-juh-mus.
She couldn't read, but saw the name in an ad from a department store in
the newspaper for sleepwear for babies.
The child, to this day, has a birth certificate which lists her name as
Pajamas.
I would love to hear from anyone with my last name. We are related. The
name originated with my GGGGGgrandfather who come to this country from
Alsace-lorraine and so far, I have located almost 2,000 direct descendants.

I knew of a woman in Virginia who named her son Remy, because she thought it
sounded cool after getting drunk on a bottle of Remy Martin.

name, Christopher. Seems as if they were studying geography and the kids
were teasing him about being named after Christopher Columbus.
I looked at him calmly and said, "no problem, you weren't named after
Christopher Columbus, you're named after Christopher Robin from Winnie
the Pooh."
He started crying even louder... wailing "oh momma, that's worse."
Looking back, I am really glad my husband made me come to my senses and
name him Christopher Michael and not Christopher Robin as I had
originally intended.

My sister is named after my two grandmothers, Queene Reed and Mary
Lancendorfer.
"Queene Mary" was Right Out, of course.
But sometime in my youth one of us discovered "Mary Queene of Snots".
She just doesn't *use* Mary any longer. :-)

Rat & Swan
impressionable little angel asked you a sensitive question from deep
inside his heart and you came out with that. Tch! Well, you just call
the little nipper to the computer, because Unca Swannie's gonna lay the
*truth* on him! This oughta take his self esteem back outta the terlet.
You see, Son, it's like this. When your mother was carrying you, she
had all these strange cravings. Kippered ice cream, caramel coated fried
chicken, you name it, the poor woman had to have it. Naturally, it was
up to your heroic and handsome father to make good on his promise to her
that if *this* would the the *last* kid she had, he'd get her anything
her little pregnant heart desired! Ya gotta understand that at the time
your older siblings had gotten to the stage where they were drivin' yer
folks up the walls. I mean, LaCrosse practise at 3:00 AM? But I digress.
Your mother woke up suddenly just after your folks had finished a long
game of Monopoly and turned in (trust me! When one of em's preggos,
that's *all* they do in bed for a while. Don't ask!) tapped your dear
father on his shoulder and said "Honey! It's time!" This was back in
the days when your folks still called each other 'honey' and 'darling'
instead of 'hey you!' and "beergut" Kids do that to a marriage.
Anyway, your father sat bolt upright in the bed scattering paper money
all over the place (in preparation for the real financial hemorrhage,
later on) "NOW?" he squeaked.
"Yes, Dear! If I don't get butter brickle ice cream on a pepperoni pizza
NOW, I'm going to go bananas!" So your poor father pulled on his clothes
and coat, grabbed the car keys and slogged out into the snow. Drifts
seven feet high impeded his progress, but your heroic father was
undaunted! That pizza HAD to be brought home and he was the man to do
it. Never questioning where the seven foot snowdrifts came from in
August, he manfully harnessed the Chihuahuas up to the family sled (they
were poor in those days. The sled was an old orange crate harnessed to
237 Chihuahuas) and cried "MUSH!" because in the rush to hook up the
team, he'd stepped on the wheel dog. Scraping the ex-wheeler off his
shoe and leaping into the sled he was off!
He got to the Pizza delivery place just before it closed. Hastily
ordering a pepperoni pizza, he then flew to the ice cream store next
door. Well, as luck would have it, as he was racing back with the ice
cream, he slipped on a patch of partially melted Ben and Jerry's Chunky
Monkey ice cream, fell and seriously bruised his anterior cruciate
ganglion, causing his Poupart's Ligament to swell horribly! Since
swollen ligaments were what had GOTTEN him and the missus INTO this mess
in the FIRST place (that's another story. Ask your mother!) he HAD to
get that pizza back some other way. As the Pizza counterman came out to
help the groaning man, he looked up and with tears in his eyes, he
handed the butter brickle ice cream to the man and tave hin the address.
Heroically, the pizza counterman (well, a lad, actually, named Kent
Michael Foofenstocker of the Poughkeepsie Foofenstockers) threw the hot
pizza into the sled, grabbed the ice cream in one hand and the reins in
the other and whipped the exhausted Chihuahuas into a gallop. He made it
after a stop at the video arcade for a few rounds of Donkey Kong.
After your father finally made it home, assisted by a friendly carrier
pigeon and two old ladies in a Plymouth, he vowed to get larger sled
dogs and have a vasectomy. But in gratitude to the valiant pizza
delivery boy, he named you Kent!
And that's the truth.
