What's in a name?

The other day I decided to enlighten people as to why my name is what it is. A few people had asked where it came from, and I have always thought my story was pretty funny. So, then I started thinking about how many other unique stories are out there. And, since a lot of what we in Student Body are learning about has to do with identity, I thought I would throw this challenge out there. 

If you already know, comment on this post to let us in on why your name is your name and how it got that way. 

If you don't know why, try to find out why.

I'm really interested to see what comes out of this little experiment. 

If you are interested, here is the background on my name.
