Names
Someone on a mailing list was asking about names. What's your full name, and what does it mean?
I am Michael David Alberghini
Michael has been the first or second most popular name given to male babies in the U.S. for each year since 1954. My parents aren't very creative. :)
David was my fathers name, and also biblical. Dad was a big old Jesus Krispie.
Alberghini is Italian, obviously. An albergo is an inn. Alberghi is the plural. Adding -ini in Italian is a diminutive. So my last name in Italian basically means "little hotels"
What about you?

no subject
My dad wanted me to have name from his family, my mom said hell no, she will not be named Dorothy, Andy already had a family middle name from mom's side, so they agreed to be utterly neutral and gave me the three whitest names on the face of the earth.
