My mom wanted to name me Heidi, but my dad hated it and it didn't go at all with our last name. My mom gave up naming me and let my dad do it- he named me Kari. If I were born a boy I would have been Timothy.

My husband's parents had the hardest time naming their 3 kids. They had no names picked out for Justin until after he was born and they were asked what name was going on his birth certificate, they quickly picked the name Justin. With their second kid they decided on the name Melissa, they put it on the birth certificate and brought her home from the hospital- a few weeks later they decided to have her name changed to Lindsay. Lastly Justin's youngest sister came home with no name! Her birth certificate simply said "Baby Girl" as the name. It took them a little while before they finally decided to name her Diana.
