I was almost named Roberta. Ugh.

My middle name is Otis.

I would have KILLED for Nathan.

You would have gotten a lot of flack for that...









:D
Couldn't resist. Muy silly mood.

Can I call you "O" for short?

See, I like the name Otis. When I hear names like Otis, Cletus or Enos, I start thinking about some big hunky white guy plowing a field in overalls wiping sweat from his brow with no shoes on...

Wait, what were we talking about?

*pulls the hay straw out of his teeth and wipes the mud from between his toes before answering*

Can you imagine how I cringe when the Overstock.com commercials come on?

"Have you heard of the big O?"

Sadly, I can tell the indignity of my worst nickname without sharing my last name. But I can say I've always hated the name Leo.

What, does it rhyme with hunt, runt and punt?

Angina, perhaps?

Enis, Rock, or Horatio?

I know.....Rumpledforeskin!

Again, I love the name Leo. When I was a kid I wanted to change my name to Leo or Dexter. I thought Leo was such a cool name. Like Leo the Lion etc. (Dexter had to do with me being a Kurt Russell fan as a kid...)

Ralphie's father is named Leo, too.

Isn't Nathan's hot dogs more of an east coast thing? I've barely heard of 'em.

My brother likes "Nate" but his wife prefers "Nathan". It sounds really nice with their last name, too.

His middle name is Joseph, after my great-grandfather. Not bad. Definitely cool by me even though I dislike the entire middle name concept :)
