Because I'm crazy about Names
1. What does your first name mean?
Messenger
2. What does your middle name mean?
Either “bitter” or "the Sea"
3.What does your last name mean?
Well, technically it’s a bird.
4. So what does your name mean when put together?
A nasty little bird with bitter news.
5. What would you have been named if you were the opposite gender?
Michael Christopher, like every other boy born in 67-68.
6. Any other name oddities?
My first name has an odd spelling.
It is habitually mispronounced, and I use that for screening telemarketers.
7. Do you like your name?
Yes. it's very pretty.
8. What do you like best about it?
It flows so nicely that people think I made it up.
9. What do you like least about ?
Constantly mispronounced.
10) If you HAD to change your name (witness protection program, whatever), what would you want it to be?
Sarah Elaine
Or Linda Elizabeth
(Sarah is a variant on my standard fictional persona: Zara or Zora
Linda is a modernized form of Aethelynde, my SCA name)
