I got off early and thought I would answer another Friday Five.
1. Is the name you have now the same name that's on your birth certificate? If not, what's changed?
Yes it is.
2. If you could change your name (first, middle and/or last), what would it be?
I actually wouldn't change my name. I like the way it sounds.
3. Why were you named what you were? (Is there a story behind it? Who specifically was responsible for naming you?)
I asked this same question to my parents and they never could come up with an answer. They did tell me if I turned out to be a girl they would have named me Sandy or something like that. I claim that they named me after Barry Manilow.
4. Are there any names you really hate or love? What are they and why?
The names that I hate were those I was called in grade school. They never were actually inventive cause nothing really rhymes well with Barry. Except maybe hairy.
5. Is the analysis of your name at kabalarians.com / triggur.org / astroexpert accurate? How or how isn't it?
Of course it does. You have to understand that those things are never negative. It never says, "Christopher, you are mean, rude, and a cheap person. No one likes you and you should really just jump off a building..." I don't even have to look at them to know that they describe me. It is like reading your horoscope at the end of the day and looking for signs in hindsight.
