Apple isn't that bad of a name despite the fact that no one takes me seriously when I tell them my first name :/ Also I think it pretty much bars me from working for any orange conglomerate or Microsoft. Still I am the only person I know to have my name so at least I am unique.

Yeah, it's alright I guess. It's Matthew, means 'Gift of God' apparently. Kind of ironic since I haven't had time for any 'God' for quite some time now. Also don't feel much like a gift either.
Cheer up, you belong to the Matthew club, that alone makes you pretty awesome ;D

Long ago I did not like my first name. It is unique enough I refuse to use it online, as someone could easily use it to identify me (can't be more than 10 or 12 people with my name in the U.S.) It bothered me so much I was going to change it by going by my middle name (Ryan) in college. No one there knew me, and no one from my high school was going to the same college I chose. I arrived and found that there were already 4 Ryans living on my dorm floor. I stuck with my name. It does not bother me so much anymore.

I'm not the biggest fan of my first name, it's ok. (Elizabeth)
But usually I'm called Liz which I don't mind at all, I like it way better. Or my friends like to call me Dragon...yeah that's a long story haha.

I like Callan, haven't met anyone else with it yet, lots of people call me callum though by mistake, I try to correct them. My English teacher insisted that my name was Bernard for 2 years...

Joshua. A fitting name, I suppose, for one of my family's religious background. I personally don't like it so much- I'd rather name myself, honestly.

I like it =) But I once asked myself, if I HAD to change my name, what would I change it to? The one I picked was Isaac.

I like my name (Bryn), but it is a bother, people always mishear it or misread it, I have been called Brendan, Bryan, Brent, Bren, Byrne, Byron. Then I get asked if it is short for something, if it has more like Bryncent, Brynith, etc. Then I have to validate with some people that it IS a real name, explain the Welsh origin, but no I'm not Welsh though. Gah.

So yeah I'm calling my sons if I have them Hank (Henry) and Eric.

Apparently means 'Usurper'. My full name apparently translates out to 'Usurper and Conqueror', so that's pretty awesome.

It does get rather annoying when people spell it wrong, but after 18 years, you get used to it.
Wouldn't change it for the world

Andrew's okay, but I prefer my middle name (Jairus) because Jay is a cooler short name than Drew.

It's okay.
It's actually spelt Emily but I thought that was crap and boring, so I've been spelling it Emilee for the past 5/6 years now. Just thought I'd try be different in the sea of Emily's at my school xP

My mother named me after a man who sold his soul to the devil for vanity's sake... I'm not sure if that's a bit missed up or totally awesome!!! At the very least I have an uncommon name.
I've never changed my name or used a nickname, but pretty much every female I've been involved with just calls me Dori since it's easier, and I think I'm okay with that.
