I was named Crystal. My mom gave me that name cause it was a character off of some Soap Opera that she used to watch. :)

my first name amanda was giving to me from my mom, it was a name that was in her family.

my middle name shelby was giving to me from my dad, he named me shelby becasue he once owned a ford shelby mustange, and it was his fav. car. so in a way i was named after a car. :lol:

i also know the short list of names that they were going to pick if i had been a boy, they were between james, william, or ace. :lol:

My middle name is my mom's favorite aunt! She was about to name me Brittany, but grandma made her change it to Bailey! Good thing too, cause I definatly don't look like a Brittany!

my old name had a very stupid meaning. My old name meant "Wierd" or "strange" so i changed my name myself. :x This stupid name was given by my grandfather who hated me. :roll:
I love my name "Priya" given by me which means "Beloved" :)

i got my first name (Casey) from my mom, who got the idea for the name from an ex-boyfriend she was dating at the time. lol. Lee, I got from my grand-father, whose middle name is the same as mine and my last name came from my father.
