Hehe, it's my mn, after my maternal grandfather, George. I like having a not-so-common mn, since my fn is so darn popular, but I used to hate my mn growing up. 'It sounds like the name of a French poodle!' LOL. I like it now, and especially the "differentness" of it. But I still get VERY strange looks and even smirks and laughs when I tell people--adults, mind you--my mn. I try to say it with a blank look, to gauge what their true reaction will be, not based on mine, but I think a lot of them are waiting to see what my reaction is of it before they react. When people laugh, I just shrug. Yeah, it's different, but thank God it's not Marie, Lynn, Ann, or Nicole like ALL the other Heathers I know! :)
