I don't know what I would have been named if I would have been a boy. But my dad wanted to name me, for a girl, Kizzie. I'm serious ... Kizzie. Is that even a name??? My mother said, "Over my dead body!" so they fought and fought about it. One day my mom had gotten a box of apples to make apple butter with, and the brand on the side was "Shanna Valley Apples". My mom, angry, says, "How about Shanna?" and my dad, angrier, says, "Fine!" ... still hoping in his heart for Kizzie, I'm sure.
Thank GOODNESS for apples!!!
I was set on the name Dylan for my son from the beginning, although I thought briefly about Dane.
If he would have been a girl, I was going to name him Logan.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
