In Reply to: What's in a name?.... Watch out for what the initials Spell!! posted by Beth on May 30, 2003 at 14:32:38:
: For some reason, the Catholic's thought it would be a fantastic idea to give each child a name that represented their favorite saint. In my family there is a John Joseph, Mary Theresa, and my little brother Jesus, (the only one out of 7 who struck gold since Jesus has no middle name.) Actually, what's more horrifying than the fact that someone reading this believes my little brother is named Jesus, are the 'initials' people are cursed with forever. My full name is Beth Ann Maura, my last initial is "B" which made me the target of every bully in my catholic school (Peter Simon, the fat red-headed kid was relentless.) BAMB. That damn Disney movie was the end of me. : So for all you Simpson families who plan on naming your first born Aurther Spencer, plan ahead! Understand that your child will be tortured all through his school years and into his adult life. And you will take the brunt of all his future resentments. : People still call me BAMB for crying out loud. You won't see me marrying any guy whose last name is Irving anytime soon.

That's true Beth. My family is Catholic too, but thank God my parents didn't give me or my brother and sister a middle name.
