Isn't it sad? Junior is supposed to be a title, not a name. But then again, I used to know a girl named Champange...

Yep, I've heard of parents giving their sons the name "Junior" as a legal first name. I've even heard of some parents naming their daughters "June" in the mistaken belief that this is the feminine equivalent of "Junior". Oy....-- Nanaea

The only reason I missed out on being a Junior, is because my fathers First name is Robert, his second is Allan, my first is Allan my second is Wayne, Handsome Wagon maker, what a joke, my mom wants to call my little sister Tabbifer Catherine, which as near as I can tell Tabbifer is from Tabitha which means "Gazelle", and Catherine is according to Behind the name, "my consecration of your name".
