91.0. "More family names" by 8233::STEPHENSON () Fri Apr 03 1987 00:49

         Whew, I just found out about this file and just finished reading
    it.  I had a lot of catching up to do!
         Anyway, I wanted to add my immediate family's names because
    even with all the reading, I'm pretty sure I didn't see the names 
    in the file.
         I don't know the meanings of the names, but if anyone has any
    idea, I would like to know what they are.
    
    Dad - James Lincoln - goes by Jim
    Mom - Evangeline Mary - goes by Vangie.  
    I don't know where my grandparents go their names.
    
    Me - Marietta Anna - I go by Etta, you could probably also use Marie,
         and Mary.  I am mistakenly called Edna alot which, no offense
         to the Edna's  out there, but I detest.  Marietta came from
         a nun who was my mom's favorite teacher.  I was born on 
         St. Anne's day, hence came Anna.  My first name is pronounced
         mar (rhymes with car) ee et tuh.  Also roll the r if you can,
         and you will have it perfect.
    
    Sis 1 - Janine Marie - was named after one of mom's friends.  When
            the hospital was filling out the birth certificate, one
            of mom's older brothers added Marie.  Dad was in Japan so
            he had no say so.
    
    Sis 2 - Frederica - Was born on grandpa's birthday.  I'll bet you
            already guessed his name was Fred, which is what Sis 2
            chose to go by after getting into high school.  Her previous
            nickname was Missy.
    
    Sis 3 - Constance Sabina - Was named after Aunt Constance and great
            great grandma Sabina (pronounced suh vee nuh).  She now goes 
            by Connie.  When she was little, she was fat and cute so 
            we called her Tubby.  After she got into school, I guess 
            she decided she didn't like that so much anymore.
    
    Sis 4 - Leslie Ann - My parents were definitely not expecting another
            girl and had only boys names picked out.  As it turned out
            Leslie did not live for more than an hour so mom let the
            rest of us girls pick her name.
    
    Sis 5 - Donna Sanay - This is the last one folks!  Donna is one
            of mom's dearest friend's.  Sanay (pronounced suh naa)
            is the name of a Korean student that mom was teaching English
            to.  It is actually a boy's name in Korea but mom liked
            it so much, she decided to use it anyway.
          
    Well, that was all of them.  Thank goodness, my fingers are tired
