I was born on Sunday, August 16, 1998. My fall name is Jesse Lee Tonga, my mom wanted my name to be Jesse James but my dad didn't wanted my name to be Jesse James, there was no really reason why my mom and dad chose my name. I was born at McKennan Hospital in Sioux Falls South Dakota, at 7:56 on Sunday morning of the 16 of August. I was 9 pounds 4 oz 21 inch and I had blue eye and brown hair. On the day I was born my mom and went to the hospital at 2:30am after dropping my brother Zach off at my grandma and grandpa’s house. I was born on my mom and dad’s 1 year wedding anniversary and my dad’s birthday. I am the second child that my mom and dad had. I have one brother that is older then I am and 1 sister that is younger then me.

I was born on October 14, 2003 in Paramount, California. I was named Bryan. According to my parents, I was named Bryan after Brian Littrell from the Backstreet Boys. For the first two years of my life, my parents and I lived with my grandma in Paramount. Later on, my parents moved out into their own house in Bellflower, California. When I was 5, my mom had another baby, which would soon be my little sister.

I was born July 18, 1999 to my parents Joel and Kathy at Forrest General Hospital in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. I was a month early, but I was such a large baby that the doctor said “if he came on time he would have driven us home”. My mom was thrilled to have her first and only child; she named me Dylan, after the son of Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee. My name was strongly debated by my Irish Catholic Great Grandmother, who insisted I be named after a saint. After a failed attempt by Father Tommy Conway to convince her of the great Saint Dylan, my mother agreed to give me the middle name Thomas.

Most people have a story about how their parents decided on their name, especially those of us who have less common ones. Mine is fairly dry; my parents looked through a book of names and decided that “Maizie” was charming and sweet and would fit me well. My sister’s story, however, is slightly more intriguing. Cleo Arden Seidl, born on August 3rd of 2001, was named by me, Maizie Regan Seidl, when I was just two years and nine months old.

My name is Lindsey Dice. Lindsey is from the English origin and it means “linden trees near the water.” To me, this means I have deep roots and am strong and stable, but surrounded by peace, serenity, and beauty. My last name, Dice, is also from the English origin and means “chance” or “luck.” I suppose I’ve been lucky throughout my life because I am surrounded by friends and family who I love and have been fortunate enough to always have the things I need and want in life. Our names are central to how we view ourselves in society, so in order to have good self esteem, we must love our name. I was born on April 1st, 1998 in the town of Saginaw, Michigan. I currently attend New Tech at Meridian High School and am duel- enrolled at Delta College. Playing the flute, yoga, and meditation are a few methods I use to express myself and calm down when I’m feeling anxious. My love for animals has encouraged me to convert to vegetarianism and not drink milk. After high school I plan on attending Central Michigan University to major in journalism and eventually move to New York. I am confident, sophisticated, and happy.

I was born June 29 2000 to Michael and Shaunette Hurts. My parents. We lived in Virginia at the time. After Virginia my parents were stationed at Kentucky so we went to Kentucky. Lived there for a while in a house till I was 4 years of age. In Kentucky I had my first ever pet. My parents decided to give me a hamster instead of a dog. He was a small brown and white little pet. I was to give him a name so since I was 4 years old I thought dude was an efficient name. So dude was his name. After being in Kentucky for about

Well, I suppose I should start with my name. I am Carolina Yanette Vlaun. I was born Monday, November 22nd 1999 at 7:14 pm at 9lbs and 1 oz in San Antonio, Texas on a nice and cool night at santa rosa methodist hospital. My mom likes to say that was the best day of her life after being in labor for 2 days i’d finally decided to get out. My dad said he was just excited to finally meet the baby that caused so much trouble. However no matter how happy my parents were the day of my birth my father had still wanted his first born to be a boy, instead he got me. I suppose that he would’ve named his son carlos after him, but since he had me he used the male version of his name and i became carolina. Whenever my mom tells the story she never leaves

My mom was a reader. She was a slow reader, but a reader nonetheless. Her favorite book to this day is A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty White. The main Character’s name is Mary Frances Nolan. My mom decided then that my name would be Frances. Well, that didn’t work because my dad didn’t like that name. So anyway, my mom also loved a set of children’s books about a badger named Frances (she is an elementary school teacher), and the badger’s little sister’s name was Gloria. I was named Gloria after the little sister, or I was named after Gloria Estefan if you ask my dad.

I was born in November 2000 in Mena, Arkansas, the first child and only daughter of Tommy and Sonya Kyle. I was a fast learner right from the get-go; I began speaking and walking before I was a year old. I was also very curious, and I was constantly asking questions. I spent the days of my childhood at my grandparent’s house, watching PBS TV shows and playing with puzzles and legos, while my parents were at work. When I was three years old my brother Braxton was born, and he joined our grandparents and I during our days.

Many great things have happened in my life, great things are still happening to this day. I was born on June 7, 1943 to two of the most wonderful parents. Their names are Jones and Yolande Giovanni. They named me Yolande Cornelia Giovanni Jr., but everybody calls me Nikki. I was born in Knoxville, Tennessee. I had a awesome childhood, but I stayed sick. My nose always stayed stuffy. I had bad allergies when I was younger. When I got to stay home, I read and read. I had great friends and an awesome childhood.

When I was a little girl I always wanted a horse. Finally when I was ten I got my first horse. Dad surprised me with her. Her name is Penelope. I was really excited when I got Penelope. It took us awhile to name her. My dad picked Penelope and Alec and I agreed it was a good name.

The middle name chosen for me was Hope. My father picked out the name Hope because in his eyes it is an inspirational name. Hope was a popular Christian name back in the 17th century. The factor that contributed to this name could be because my dad is a religious man. I actually really like my middle name because it is frequently used as a sign of caring.

Hello, my name is Rainey; you are probably thinking just about now, who named this girl. Well, I have always had that question on my mind as well. What I remember about my childhood (which I might add is not much) is mostly living in this house with about ten other kids who did not have parents either and we living on our worldwide drug Elate, bread and also water. I was told from the older kids that when my mother had dropped me off one day she told the kids that she had been diagnosed with AIDS, and she was going to kill herself. So my best friend was named was Skyleh, she was one of the older kids and she took care of me for many of my

My name is Andrew Ka Yiu Wong. I am 13 years old. Ka Yiu is actually my Chinese name but I prefer to be called by Andrew. The name Andrew is very popular in the United States. We have two presidents named Andrew: Andrew Jackson and Andrew Johnson. They are important heroes in the American history. Also, the fourth disciple of Jesus is Saint Andrew. I am very proud of my English name and respect it because it is my Christian name too. My Chinese name was given by my grandmother and it meant the protector of the family. Anyway, both my English and Chinese names are my favorite, and my birthday is on September 18th. I am 5’4” tall and weigh 112 pounds. I have a black hair and need to wear glasses all the time. I love singing
