I was named after my grandmothers' middle names
Kathaleen Marie
If I had been named after their first names, I could have been Florence Eleanor!!! Glad my parents went the middle name route!
My first name has an extra 'a' in the middle, we think because when my grandmother was born, her parents had such a southern accent that the nurse heard Kath-A-leen, even though they meant "Kathleen". I think that's sorta cute. And I let people call me by my full first name, but ONLY if they pronounce the A, otherwise they can only call me Kathy...Yea, I'm high maintenance when it comes to my name...
