I'm pretty much brain dead just now, so I do a Friday 5. There's logic in that somewhere *g*

1. Is the name you have now the same name that's on your birth certificate? If not, what's changed?

Nope. I use James' surname now.

2. If you could change your name (first, middle, and/or last), what would it be?

I like my name, at least I do now. When I was younger I didn't. What annoyed me, and still does on occasions is that people seem to think my name is Teresa. It's not and never has been. I was named Terri, Terri is *not* short for anything. Plus there was that whole thing that Terri is a man's name, at least it is here. I could never get anything with my name on, like keyrings, because they were spelled Terry.

I'd also give myself a middle name. Not that I want one really it's just I'm the only one in my family that doesn't have one. I'm not kidding either, every relation of mine has a middle name but me. I'm positive my parents thought I was going to be a boy, so couldn't think of any girls names.

. Why were you named what you were? (Is there a story behind it? Who specifically was responsible for naming you?)

My parents were bikers in their youth and they supposedly named me after this bikers song that had the name Terri in it. But I really suspect that it was really Terry and they got caught out by my gender *g* Of course I can't tell you about my middle name, as they didn't give me one!

Are there any names you really hate or love? What are they and why?

I love Corey ( obviously) when I had him no one had the name over here, now it's catching on. I picked it because my favourite ice hockey import player had a son called Corey, and I loved the name when I heard it. I also love Bailey. I've never really thought about girls names.

Is the analysis of your name at www.kabalarians.com accurate? How or how isn't it?

Report is

The name of Terri creates an overly-sensitive nature which causes you to sense and feel far more than you can understand or put into words. You have a deep, artistic, and creative side which shows through a love for music and literature. Writing is a more natural mode of expression for your deeper thoughts and feelings than the spoken word. You have an ability to concentrate and work intently on anything which holds your interest. However, you prefer to avoid routine, monotony, and mental tasks. You enjoy the out-of-doors and find your greatest peace and relaxation from the beauty and harmony of nature. You prefer to limit your friendships and associations to those who share your interests and appreciate your quiet, refined ways. Others often find it difficult to understand you. Your feelings tend to build up within you and, if you cannot release them through a creative, constructive channel, you could suffer with frustration, moods, and much inner turmoil.

It's actually pretty accurate, though it does make me sound like a flaky idiot. I especially like the inner turmoil *g*
