HelpWhat would your name have been...

...if your parents used your mother's maiden name?
The thread about the Southern tradition of giving daughters their mother's maiden name as a first name piqued my interest. As I said in that thread, my name would have been Colby. Sounds a little too country to be me, but I could have lived with it.
ETA: If you don't want to say the actual name, you could do the 'sounds like' thing ("It sounds like 'red'".)
