The real name thread prompted a memory, did your parents have potential other names for your birth

If I was a boy I would have been called Michael

I never asked my folks what I could have been. My Gran asked if I could be named after my Grandad who was no longer with us, my folks agreed and my sister chose my middle name

A slight tangent. I had a relative whose father wanted a boy and to name him Bill. He ended up with a girl, had no alternative name, so still ended up naming her Bill.

I am named after a dead male relative and so if I was a boy I would have just had the male version of my name... 1 letter difference.

I’ve just WhatsApp’d my mom, apparently if I was a girl I was going to be named Charlotte.

Begs the question whether I’d have been Charlotte the Harlot!

My dad wanted to call me Diane...I don't particularly like my actual name as it's boring, but I'm glad my mum talked him out of Diane

* no offence to anyone called Diane, it just wouldn't suit me

Yes, if my dad had had his way I would have had another common 80s girls name.

If I'd been a boy I would have had my brother's name. (I know the final possibility in case my youngest sibling was the other gender, too)

Haha that's probably the reason we have so many common names spelt differently now.

Ha ha when my niece was born, her dad ran out of the delivery suite and asked me how to spell her name, it’s Irish and my mum had chosen it.

Sunbeam, as the night of my birth is was storming and the morning after was one of the hottest of that year, mixed with hippy oarents. Thankfully my grandfather talked my parents out of it.
