I didn't when I was a kid. Absolutely hated it, and quite openly and vocally.
Which, in reality was supremely assholish of me since that is my grandfather's first name. But I grew up eventually. Now I am indifferent. A name is just a name and I'm a person of the type that would never utter a phrase like "that's funny, you don't look like a Doug." It is nice that it pretty much guarantees that there is nobody else in the world with my exact name (there are a couple dozen Alexander Stroup's out there). Also, to the extent that I know it made my grandfather extremely happy when my parents gave me the name, I am glad they did. Whatevever name was given to me would have seemed "me" to me so if they could give me a name that made someone happy, that's great. |
