I don't really like my name. "Jacob" is just a tad too bibley for me.
My middle name is cool, though. My dad insisted my siblings and I all have motorbike manufacturers as middle names.
But you get to go around telling everyone you're the manifestation of the character with the same name from LOST!
Yeah, but recently I've also been likened to a certain Twilight character.
Being called a werewolf was pretty cool, but the sudden influx of preteen/early adolescent girls with forced crushes on me has been terifying.
Terrifyingly awesome, if you're around the same age as them. :p
Older than most by about three years.

Funnily enough, the only other females who are interested in me are over thirty.
I'm terrified nasty things will happen when I turn legal.

I hate my name...'Grant'...it makes no sense. I mean, it's not exactly the most macho name or the most creative name. I will probably switch my middle and first names around.

Then I'd be a Charlie. ^^
You'd pick Charlie over Grant? Grant's a pretty awesome name.

Unless people call you "Granny."
You think so?

I've never liked it. But then if a complete stranger likes it maybe I'll keep it. ^^ lol.

Think I gotta add you to my friends list for that. :D

Embrace the madness, my child. Only through complete and total insanity can you be truly free.

Yes! A random stranger's approval in exchange for approval for a random stranger's name! My life is complete. :p

Alan.

Its a pretty boring name to be honest. So boring that even my girlfriend doesn't like it.

Rather have one of my middle names, David Elwin.

My name is Damion. I was gonna be "Damon", but my dad fucked it up. I'm glad he did too. It seems like the only name I can think of that matches my personality. The only other name that I would find suitable would be "Isaac", because I like that one too.

Trivia: I've been made fun of because of my name, and you may have heard it before. That's all I'll say about that. Find your own info, stalkers! :p

It's kind of ironic that an atheist, such as myself, is named Michael.

Michael is a given name that comes from the Hebrew: מִיכָאֵל / מיכאל‎ (Mikha'el), meaning "Who is like God?"
I guess I don't fulfill my name.
Michael is also the name of the Archangel. How do I know this my name is also Michael. Its a pretty plain name, but the funny thing is I have 3 friends whos names are Michael, Kyle,and Kyle. So whenever we introduce ourselves we always go: Michael, Kyle, Michael, and Kyle. Leaves a great first impression.

You Michaels should go by Mike. That way it'd be "Mike, Kyle. Mike, Kyle." Works better if the person doing the introductions is slurring.

My name is Lawrence, you don't see that one much though.
I don't feel much for names, can't say mine really represents me but I wouldn't care enough to want any other name or something.
My brother's middle name is Lawrence. But that's because it's my mum's maiden name, and neither of her brothers were going to have kids (and they now have 2 daughters each anyway) and it was the only way to carry the family name on.

Jenny is cool, you don't get a lot of them. Rolton though, I am ditching that ASAP. I'm just so glad it will change when I get married.

Well, my name is derived from yours. Does that mean I get to join the apparent Club of Mikha'el?

My name is George Michael, seriously. First that guy started winning Grammies, then Office Space came out, then Arrested Development. I have the worst name ever.

Samuel James Cook.. I like it. Although I'd much rather be called Shamus over Sam, if only my Dad didn't have a say in my name..

My mom wanted my whole name to flow... So; She gave me the first name of Gregory. I like the name; but unfortunately, so did a lot of popes...

The boy's name Gregory (g-rego-ry, gr(e)-gory) is pronounced GREG-er-ee. It is of Greek origin, and its meaning is "watchful, vigilant". The first of the 16 popes and 10 saints to bear the name was called Gregory the Great. He founded monasteries, reorganized papal administration and fostered the development of the Gregorian chants.
