At least with Christmas Carol, I could have been called Chris. I've always hated my name which is why my four daughters have very common names.
Nolee, is beautiful as I am sure you are. My middle name is really bad. I can't believe I am doing this.....I was named after a family member, who had a bad case of Likes to Drink too much.......and I was told that I was just like her growing up, not by my Mother, but lots of others.......LaMerle. Now that I told you, Please forget it. I never tell any one. Seriously a really good friend is seriously ticked at me because I told Her just call me "loophole" and I even asked my Mother not to tell her. I would change it to Mary LeeEllen Nash if I could. Lee was my Grandfather's name and Ellen was Mother's favorite Aunt. I would love to change it.
