My first and middle names originated from words meaning "Fierce Wagon Driver". Gotta go watch "The War Wagon" again.
Well my first two initials represent BLOW JOB.
The irony is that I am adopted and back then, my adoptive parents offered me the opportunity to change my biological name, which I did. BUT, neither of them knew the implications of my initials which I adapted because I didn't like my old name. So shortly after they adopted me, we were on a road trip from Suburban DC VA on our way to Annapolis MD. I took the first two names at the top of the list being 5 and a half years old. I had no clue. Neither did they. I also could have picked Homer or Maximillian, which were lower on the list.
But even just this past week, watching college football, I noticed a player with the last name "Fagot"....... NO NO NO, NOT PRONOUNCED THE SAME WAY...... It doesn't matter when you are unfortunately dealing with bullies.
But still, I saw that this weekend and felt sorry for him.
Point is, I have a biological name, and an adoptive name, and to me, neither of them define me as an adult.
One of the most annoying things, looking back at my adoptive father trying to instill pride in me he used to say, "You are a (insert last name here), it will put hair on your chest".
