Your parents chose your name?
We were talking about this at work and it's quite funny how some of us got our names.
Me..... Mum's favourite film when she was 'young' was Endless Love 
Its about a young girl who falls in love with an older boy. Brooke Shields played the part of the girl and her name in the film was Jade. Mum always said if she ever had a baby girl she would call her Jade. Dad had no say in the matter!!
Quite ironic, cos it looks as though I turned into Jade considering that Coli boy is a bit older than me!! Hope Coli doesn't turn into the guy out the film tho, he ended up in an asylum when the parents split them up!!
 
So where did all get your names from

My dad bought a numberplate for his car, 676 JW, he decided he wanted to keep it in the family so when I was born i had to have a name beginning with J.
When parents die, ill get a personal plate and whatever car its attached to.
