ghiniSomeone 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?

Date: 2009-02-02 01:42 am (UTC)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.
