Hi

I don't know what I'd have been called if I had been a boy but my mam always said I was going to be called Jennifer and then she took one look at me when I was born and called me Linda - never sure what to make of that one!

Rebecca is a lovely name Col........it is my eldest daughters name : )

I would have been Rebecca after my great grandmother

just glad im a girl, wouldnt want any of my 5 brothers names, they got some funny names, not over the moon with my first name, shudders when they call it out at the hospital..........

I would have been a Jason until my mum heard a women shouting the name. She turned round and instead of seeing a little lad running round the corner.....it was a dog!!!! So quickly changed Jason to Jeremy.....gladly I was a girl!!

Bev

May have been called Brian, as thats my younger brothers name.....I have never thought about it...I will have to ask mom...ha ha
however...she did give me four names......!!

Hiya Amanda....My mum was obsessed with having a boy and I was going to be David William...

My mum's Irish so it would have Rossin.
My late father was Welsh so it would have been Carys.
I must have been a dissapointment

i was always going to be a girl

mum knitted everything in pink

choose my name

it never occured to her i might be a boy!

if dad had had his way i would have been Michelle though

My Mum's favourite boys name was always Paul so i guess that is what i would have been called, not sure of the second name though, they didn't go in for family naming.

Well, considering my two brother's names - I'm glad I was a girl!! However I was named after my gran's sister who died aged 4, so going on that theory I would have been either Arthur or Edwin - one a brother of grans who died at a few days old, the other one was killed in the war.

My mum, as my dad was abroad when I was born, only chose 2 names, so mine would have been the same whether female or male

thankfully I was born female, dread to think the stick I would have taken in school, considering where I came from lol

Kim

I was adopted,and if I had been a boy I would have been Douglas!!!!!!!!I was a girl as there were no boys available!!
I notice a couple of other possible Douglas 's !!Glad I was a girl.My Birth name Helen but was then changed.

Hello Amanda,

I would have been John, not very inventive but nice!

Sadly I got the name whichever sex I was born , of course they wanted a boy!

My parents wanted to call me either Peter or Heather but my Nan decided I was a girl called Susan long before I was born! Everyone was so used to calling the bump Susan that when I was eventually born the name stuck.
I like the name but wish it hadn't been quite so popular for a few years.

My Dad did eventually end up with two sons-in-law called Peter so that was odd.
