What were YOU supposed to be called?

HAHAHAHAHAH nice stories ladies!

I would have been Derek Nolan if I was a boy, however my mom liked the names Kelly (vetoed by my dad because we lived close to a Kelly Rd), Mallory and Natalie. I was originally named Lauren when I was born (my mom's dad's name was Laurence) but my crazy nut job dad made my mom change it to Jaclyn a week later.

I was always going to be called Chrystal Lily. My mum always wanted to call her daughter Chrystal and my middle name is Lily after my great grandmother. My sister who's called Louise on the other hand was going to be called Matilda!

i was going to be called Jack Goodison if i was a boy, my dad wanted my middle name to be goodison after everton's football ground as all our family are mad evertonians lol xx

 

[EmyDra]

Mum called my Emma Kate after my Great-Grandma, but Dad apparently liked Cyan so I almost got that.

If I was a boy I'd have been called Robert, and if my brother had been a boy he'd be Abby.

Abby and Robert vs Emma and Alex, I'm so glad we are the gender we are!

FOB would've been Flora if he was a girl, Flora and Robert ftw.

Vicky Why didn't they go with that?! I hate people calling me Victoria.
My dad said to call me Vicky but my mum said I can shorten it if I want so go with Victoria

Also, my dad wanted Shelby. It's quite sweet and I do like it but a bit different and no doubt would of got the P taken out of me at school so glad they didn't

I was going to be called Karen after my aunty, then they decided Kayleigh Karen, then they changed their minds again and its just Kayleigh!

If i was a boy apparantly my name was gunna be Angus, my dad thought it was a good strong name, dunno what he meant tho!

If I was a boy I was going to be Samuel.

Donald

 

[BreCon]

I was supposed to be a boy...and then I came out a girl...
I was going to be Brock....and then they didn't have any girl names picked out so the nurses named me Breanna...and my parents really like that..and so thats my name =)

 

[Szaffi]

Mum wanted to call me Anita, dad wanted Christina, I ended up being Natalia.

Apparently it NEVER even occured to them that I could be a boy, so no boy's names were discussed.

my mum woke up from the c-section as she had to get put to sleep due to complications and the docs asked what she wanted to call me she kept mumbling scarlett poppy lol. however when she came round fully she got talked out of it and i ended up as Bethan, cant help thinking i liked scarlett and poppy more but not together lol xx

 

[BessiiBoop]

oh and my first was going to be Called Lexi untill i googled it and all that came up were 'popular dog names' or 'tranny pornstars' Sorry if i've offended anyone i really didnt mean to but it put me off the name slightly so she ended up as Elyssa Rose xx

 

[StarlitHome]

If I'd been a boy, I would've been Benjamin David. But I was a girl, so Holly Elise.

I love my middle name, I wish it was part of my first name!

And my younger brother got to be David

 

[Virginia]

My mom wanted to name me Annie...I am SOO glad my mom went with Virginia instead! They never thought I was a boy, so neither ever had a boy name picked out...

 

[dinkykitten]

They coudn't decide between Jennifer, Elizabeth or Felicity, but my mum said she didn't want Elizabeth because people might call me (wtf?)

If I was a boy I would have been Ieuan (yigh - un)

I was a girl so I got Jennifer

 

[Kess]

I would've been a Simon. Glad I was a girl, Simon wouldn't have suited me!

 

[CeeCee2010]

My mam and dad had no ideas for boys names but for girls names I was either going to be a Robyn or Ellen. Instead I am Cerys and I LOVE my name

 

[pennies]

My parents always thought (they didn't find out) I would be a girl so never picked and boys names. They were throwing names around when my mum was pregnant and my grandparents turned their nose up at Natasha, so Natasha I am!

Also, my dad wanted Shelby. It's quite sweet and I do like it but a bit different and no doubt would of got the P taken out of me at school so glad they didn't

My cousin is Shelby, she is now 10 and hates her name, she thinks it's a baby name and sounds good for a little girl but that she won't be taken seriously when she's older.

My other cousin is Shannon, but she was going to be Mercedes! Lol
