    What if a Hurricane was your Name

    What would you think if a Hurricane was your name & did so much distruction& harm.. There was a hurricane name Helene one time & I was so worried that she would do damage & when she did not I was so relieved.. I know it is a mind thing & but I just could not except a hurricane with my name doing distruction or harm to anyone.. Would this bother you?

    ~~~Thank You Very Much {Kim} kimlovescats for the Grand Siggy~~~

    I've never shared my name with a Hurricane, but Andy has.

    I've been told more than once by my dad (as a child, of course) that they should have named one after me! LOL!!!!

    There WAS a hurricane named after me. It was Hurricane Donna that happened on September 19, 1960.

    There was a hHurricane Debby, but it was downgraded to a tropical storm.

    My mom and hubby, however, have terrible hurricanes named after them. The names are both retired now. Anyone remember Hurricane Fran and Hurricane Hugo? Boy does the hubby live up to that one! lol. That's his nickname too, "Hurricane."

    Haha, funny you should mention this...my name (Katie) in German is "Katrina." My dad has been teasing me about it too, as I am that "destructive" as well! (haha, not really!) I don't really mind it, but sometimes I'm not so sure...


    Thanks Kay!!

    I would mind...b/c I'd feel guilty for all the destruction, even though it wasn't my doing..

    I remember Hurricane Donna very well. We lived in Ormond Beach, Florida at that time. I remember being sent home from school, walking home and trying to fight my way to the house with the wind blowing me all over the street. There were trash cans blowing tpwards us, the winds were so strong. We were ordered to evacuate and spent 3 days inland with my Grandmother. The storm reeked havoc but our house was virtually unscathed. My Mom cooked on a grill for 3 more days after we came back home. Ahhhhh..........the good ole days


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

    I'm not sure if there was a Hurricane Sarah.. LOL. Does anyone know if there was? But I don't think it would bother me becuase I didn't do it!

    My friends older sister and her mom both have the name Rita though. And that is the hurricane coming right now.......

    It will bother the heck out of me, my name is due to come up in a couple of years (Laura). My best friend Katrina cannot stand sharing a name with the hurricane, she gets so sick and tired of everyone asking her "what do you think about having the same name?". Kids at school constantly yell "hurricane Katrina is coming, watch out"...drives her nuts, it would drive me nuts too.
