I forgot. I'm not that much of a fucking tool.

I would've been called Charlotte if I was a girl (something my mum was really hoping for), but otherwise I'm not really sure.

If I was a girl then I'd have the name my younger sister does.
I would've been named George but George Benson [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Benson] is already famous and people would think I'm named after him.

I was going to be called Rebbecca if I was a girl, or Tom if I was a boy but then my parents decided to name me after my brothers favorite train in Thomas the tank engine. (Guess if you wish)

They decided to name me after someone in the family, who, since then, has become a monstrous asshole. Andrew was their second choice, I'll change it legally myself in time.

They didn't have a girls name yet, if I recall correctly, but Jeroen was the second pick for a boy's name. Horrible name to go abroad with, it's too damn Dutch. Not that my current name isn't...

if my sister was a boy, my parents would have named her Jack. Which is a good thing, because looking back, Jack and Daniel would be like subliminal referencing.

Ehren if I was a boy and Sara if I was a girl. Unfortunately I have a twin sister who got the name Sara so I got Kortney.

Ah, you ruined the game by putting it on your profile.

OT: Not sure what I should have been called if I was a girl but my parents wanted to call me James but then opted for Jamie weirdly.

The thought of asking my parents what they would have called me if I was female has never crossed my mind before, but since my sister was given her first name due to it being similar to a boy's name due to my parents not wanting her to be looked down by sexist individuals and my middle name being a common name for both girls and boys, I feel confident enough in my detective skills to state that my current middle name would have been my first name. (Ashley)

My parents wanted to call me Hannah, but my second name is Barr and they thought it would sound too much like handle bar, especially when my Irish family say it haha

My Dad really really really wanted to call me Zeus. The bullying that would have happened would have been immense!

I would have been Elizabeth as a girl. I don't think they had any other male choices in mind.

Well, my mum wanted either Charlotte (after my grandad Charlie) or Saraleigh but my nana didn't like Leigh so mum went with Sarahlouise (no hyphens, the names are all one, i don't have a middle name though i only go by Sarah usually).

I don't know both my parents claim that the did not name me but instead was the other one of them who did.

Funny thing though we called my brother she and emily for a year after he was born. Because we were so sure he was going to be a girl.
