I was really touched from this post about the rad musician Tim Coons naming his daughters. I now want to ask the question "why did your parents name you..." Or "why did you name your child..." To my close friends. I think I've heard that my best friend has the middle name "Jo" to recall her dad's southern roots, but I'm not even sure why they hose her first name. That seems like a travesty! There are probably wonderful stories just waiting to be heard...
